“In an international situation and an external environment that is far from simple, we must remain committed to friendship,” the Chinese leader said in a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin during the SCO summit.
Xi Jinping called for “working for the well-being of the people, enhancing the unique values of China-Russia relations, cultivating new drivers of cooperation, and making unremitting efforts to protect our legitimate rights and interests as well as the basic norms of international relations.”
