Chinese President Xi Jinping said Wednesday that the stability and certainty of China-Russia relations are particularly “precious” in the face of an international landscape intertwined with change and chaos.
“Firmly uphold and practice multilateralism, work together to revitalize the authority and vitality of the United Nations,” Xi said, adding, “promote the development of the international order in a more just and reasonable direction.”
During a meeting with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov in Beijing, Xi said the strong vitality and exemplary significance of the friendship treaty between the two countries stand out even more under such a backdrop.
Calling for strengthening strategic communication and close diplomatic coordination, he urged promoting the comprehensive strategic partnership between Beijing and Moscow to “stand higher, walk more steadily and go further.” (AP)
