🎙 Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s video address to the 9th international conference "Russia and China: Cooperation in a New Era" (May 30, 2024)
💬 I am delighted to welcome the organisers of and participants in the 9th international conference "Russia and China: Cooperation in a New Era".
Most recently, Russia's President Vladimir Putin paid a state visit to China, which definitely became the centerpiece of bilateral exchanges this year. <...>
🇷🇺🇨🇳 The bond of comprehensive partnership and strategic cooperation between Russia and China has grown unprecedentedly strong thanks to the personal efforts of both heads of state. The Beijing summit sealed the two countries’ firm commitment to further deepen and expand it. This commitment was documented in the two leaders’ joint final statement.
This year, Russia and China celebrate 75 years of diplomatic relations. We mark this significant anniversary with achieving a new quality of relations – today, Russia and China view each other as priority partners and invariably adhere to the principles of mutually respectful, equal and trustful cooperation. We support each other with regard to key issues affecting the respective fundamental interests.
<...>
Strategic coordination in the international arena remains a key component of the Russian-Chinese partnership amid the growing international tensions. Our foreign policy tandem, held together by a broad commonality of interests as well as coinciding or similar approaches to key issues on the present-day agenda, plays a major stabilising role in global affairs.
☝️ The two countries are strengthening cooperation on multilateral platforms, primarily the Unite Nations and the UN Security Council, as well as #BRICS, #SCO, #G20, and #APEC.
<...>
The Russian-Chinese strategic tandem is gaining status, and this opens up new horizons for us in terms of stronger sovereignty, economic growth, and prosperity of both countries.
