Russia and China’s top diplomats discussed strengthening their international cooperation during a meeting in Moscow on Monday ahead of an expected landmark visit from Russian President Vladimir Putin to Beijing in the coming weeks, APA reports citing CNN.
The two countries would continue “well-coordinated work” at the UN General Assembly (UNGA), which opened a new session this week, and other summits and high level meetings, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov told visiting Chinese counterpart Wang Yi in opening remarks.
The meeting – part of a four-day trip for Wang to Russia – came as Chinese Vice President Han Zheng met US Secretary of State Antony Blinken on the UNGA sidelines in New York, where both sides “reiterated their commitment to maintaining open lines of communication,” according to Washington.
