President Xi Jinping hailed China and Russia\u2019s \u201cunyielding\u201d ties in talks with Vladimir Putin on Wednesday, as the pair met to underscore their alliance days after US President Donald Trump\u2019s visit to Beijing.<\/p>\n
Putin was received by Xi outside Beijing\u2019s opulent Great Hall of the People in much the same fashion as Trump last week, complete with chanting children and military fanfare.<\/p>\n
But the language was much warmer, with Xi telling the Russian leader Beijing and Moscow have \u201ccontinuously deepened our political mutual trust and strategic coordination with a resilience that remains unyielding\u201d, according to Chinese state media.<\/p>\n
Opening talks, both were quick to laud their countries\u2019 special ties as they extended their treaty of \u201cfriendly cooperation\u201d.<\/p>\n
Putin, quoting a Chinese phrase, told Xi: \u201cA day apart feels like three autumns,\u201d adding that relations had reached an \u201cunprecedentedly high level\u201d despite \u201cunfavourable external factors\u201d, Russian media footage showed.<\/p>\n
In an apparent swipe at the United States, Xi warned of \u201cunilateral and hegemonic countercurrents running rampant\u201d in the world.<\/p>\n
Xi said the countries should focus on a long-term strategy and promote a \u201cmore just and reasonable\u201d global governance system, according to Chinese state news agency Xinhua.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe reason China-Russia relations have reached this level is because we have been able to deepen political mutual trust and strategic cooperation,\u201d Xi said at the start of his meeting with Putin.<\/p>\n
Putin said their relations were helping ensure global stability and stressed that Russia remained a reliable energy supplier amid Middle East disruption<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
