President Xi greets Putin with full military ceremony in Beijing
Vladimir Putin said Russia and China’s deepening relationship is a “stabilising” force for the world, as he began a two-day state visit in Beijing.
Putin was greeted by Xi Jinping, the Chinese President, with full military honours at the Great Hall of the People in the heart of the capital.
“Relations between Russia and China are not opportunistic and not directed against anyone,” Putin told Xi. “Our cooperation in international matters is one of the stabilising factors in the international arena.”
The two leaders have grown close in recent years despite Western concerns that China is proppiing up Russia’s economy and providing weapons components for the war in Ukraine.
