Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun confirmed on Tuesday that China welcomes President Vladimir Putin’s state visit. This strategic coordination between China and Russia will involve talks on bilateral cooperation across many fields. The two heads of state will also exchange views on international and regional issues. Guo added that China already released information regarding President Trump’s recent visit to Beijing.
China and Russia maintain a comprehensive strategic partnership of coordination for a new era. The upcoming Putin visit follows Trump’s trip to Beijing last week. Guo did not provide specific dates for Putin’s arrival.
The back-to-back visits by US and Russian presidents demonstrate China’s unique diplomatic position. China maintains working relationships with both Washington and Moscow despite growing tensions between the US and Russia. The Trump visit focused on trade and regional security issues. The Putin visit will likely emphasize energy and military cooperation.
China and Russia coordinate closely at the United Nations and other forums. Their joint stance opposes unilateral sanctions and interference. Putin’s last visit to China occurred in 2023. This strategic coordination thus continues to deepen between Beijing and Moscow. The series of visits reaffirms China’s central role in global diplomacy.
