YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Called a “dear friend” by the Russian president, Xi Jinping stepped up his appeal for a Mideast ceasefire, days after the Chinese leader hosted US President Donald Trump in Beijing. #russia #china #putin #beijing #worldnews #politics #asia #iran #usa #trump

Vladimir Putin traveled to Beijing for talks with President Xi Jinping, with the war in Iran offering an opportunity for Russia to deepen energy links with China.

Russia hopes the turmoil in energy markets will make China more flexible in negotiations on a contract for gas prices for the planned Power of Siberia 2 pipeline project.

Putin's visit to China is expected to reflect the new geopolitical reality, with increased Chinese interest in Russian logistics and energy cooperation, as Russia is heavily reliant on trade with China to weaken the impact of Western sanctions.
