The position of state counselor, a delegation of the Russian Embassy in china, as well as a company of the honor guard. Then, after the ceremonial meeting, Vladimir Putin continued his journey on aurus, accompanied by an impressive motorcade. The program is intense, negotiations with sizenpin are planned in beijing in a narrow and expanded format, the main topic is expected to be ways to resolve the ukrainian crisis. It is also planned to sign a large package. Documents, a joint press conference, then Vladimir Putin will visit harbin, take part in the opening ceremonies of the russianchinese expo and the forum on interregional cooperation. Well , ill add that this is Vladimir Putins first trip abroad after taking office as president , his second visit to beijing in less than a year. As noted in the kremlin, this is a sign of a high level bilateral relations. About how china prepared for the arrival of Vladimir Putin. The chief of our beijing bureau, alexander baletsky, will tell you. They are preparing for the russian leaders arrival in china, and some have even dressed up for the occasion. Hurray for putin, putin is cool. And putin himself, in todays interview with xinhua, explains why it is to the prc that he will make his first visit after reelection in the year of the seventyfifth anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between moscow and beijing; they are not only at their highest point, but are also getting stronger, despite the difficult situation in the world. It is important that modern russianchinese relations, regardless of ideology, political situation, their Multifaceted Development , are a conscious strategic choice based on a broad coincidence of fundamental national interests, deep mutual trust, strong public support and sincere friendship of the peoples of the two countries. All this, putin will say, would have been impossible without the personal participation of the leaders, calls the chairman wise and farsighted, and every meeting with him is a conversation between old friends, as a result. Trade turnover has doubled over the past 5 years, and china and russia are actively investing in joint innovations space, artificial intelligence, energy, the russian direct investment fund, which, with the help of chinese partners, has already attracted almost 800 billion rubles into the russian economy, just today agreed on beijing about new projects, this is the construction of the first liquefied gas transshipment terminal in the far east, and also pharmaceuticals. Russian vaccines will be produced in china, the best ones in russia. Russian and chinese technological companies, that is , our countries have immunity to external challenges, but putin will once again emphasize to chinese readers that all global turbulence, including in todays economy, is due to the wests reluctance to follow a multipolar course. Led by the united states, western elites refuse to respect civilizational and cultural diversity, they reject it. Traditional values formed over centuries. In an attempt to maintain their global dominance, they arrogated to themselves the right to tell other nations with whom they can cooperate and with whom they cannot. In in beijing, this position is shared in the same ukrainian conflict, they understand the root cause, but putin once again spells everything out moscow is open to negotiations against the west. Unfortunately, these initiatives do not find support either in ukraine or its western patrons. They are not ready for an equal, honest and open dialogue based on Mutual Respect and consideration of each others interests. Instead, the western elites are persistently trying to punish russia, isolate and weaken it, supply the kiev authorities with money and weapons, and have introduced weapons against our country almost 16 thousand unilateral illegitimate sanctions threaten to dismember our country, illegally trying to appropriate our foreign assets. On International Platforms , official beijing declares that the leaders focus will be on issues of double counteraction to western sanctions, and in addition to beijing, putins state visit program also includes harbin, a large forum of interregional cooperation, the capital of the northern chinese province traditionally maintains the closest economic relations with russia, since then how the russians built the Chinese Eastern Railway here. First the railway bridge over the sungari binju, here is often called simply russian, and in many ways this is a friendly bridge. If at the very beginning of the 20th century, not just two coasts, but also two countries were connected, and its not a matter of geography, its here that china and russia are connected spiritually. The bells were cast in the moscow region, the pine was brought from irkutsk, specifically to recreate an exact copy of the wooden st. Nicholas church, once the first in harbin, but destroyed during the cultural revolution. I was little when my father was sent from shanghai to harbin build a metallurgical plant together with soviet engineers. And st. Nicholas church. Then it still stood next to the house, for me this picture is from childhood, thats why i wanted to restore the temple, but the philanthropist did not limit himself to the temple, and now there is a whole volga ethnographic park with huts, the minipetrovsky palace and a boat, heroes of pushkins fairy tales, to ancient chinese traditions , according to putin, in russia they treat with no less respect, they always discover with great interest something new about the unique and original traditions of china, especially during visits to the prc. I know a lot about your battles. Arts, including wusha, which is very popular in our country, i have respect for chinese philosophy. My family members are also interested in china, and some of them are learning chinese. Just tomorrow the leaders will announce the official start of the cross year of cultures, but today in front of the Russian Embassy in beijing they opened a truly symbolic monument to two bitter ones, our maxim, and the chinese luxin, who is called chinese for his similar style and theme. Vladimir putin held a meeting on issues of the militaryindustrial complex, this is the first such event after the formation of the new government. The president said that the Russian Ministry of defense should become as open as possible to innovation, since this is what determines how fighters in the special Operation Zone receive the most modern weapons and equipment. Read more about the main topics of the meeting. Andrey grigoriev will tell its participants. At a meeting with the Supreme Commander in the kremlin, the entire leadership of the russian army, the new head of the ministry of defense belausov and his predecessor, now secretary of the Security Council shaigu, chief of the general staff general gerasimov, commander of the Moscow Military districts general kuzovlev, leningrad general lapin, central general mordvichev, acting commander of the Southern District general anashkin, eastern general sanchik, commander of the airborne forces. On may 9, the day of victory of the soviet people in the great patriotic war, i wanted to do it personally, i know that on the ninth you all should have been and were at your workplaces, celebrated this holiday in a combat situation, in this i want to thank all of your subordinates for this. On the right hand of putin is former defense minister sergei shaigu, who has now been appointed secretary of the Security Council. I want to thank sergei kuzhgevich shaigu for what he has done over the previous years to build the armed forces, to give it a new look, i think that we have no one doubts that this image is being consistently created, including in relation to the requirements of today. Will be able to find the optimal balance between military and civilian expenses, so that the army receives all the best, and other sectors of russian industry receive additional benefits at the expense of the militaryindustrial complex. We see that we understand that growing spending on defense and security is one way or another organically connected with civilian industries, which in turn gives impetus to the development of industry as a whole, preserves and increases jobs in the country, our unemployment is at a historically minimal level today, but this is the relationship between. Guns, socalled guns and oil, it must be organically integrated into the Overall Development strategy of the russian state, i hope that andrei remevich will cope with this task in the best possible way. Among other things, andrei aravnovich has recently, on my instructions, been involved in some dualuse things, in particular the development of unmanned and aerial and other unmanned systems. Through the efforts of our military , we managed to repel the widely publicized ukrainian counteroffensive, which involved western weapons and units of the armed forces of ukraine trained in the west. Now in all areas on the front, the russian army dominates, occupying increasingly advantageous positions. Successful actions of recent days in the kharkov region, where the advance of our troops should secure russian belgorod from the incessant shelling of the Ukrainian Armed forces. We see what they are doing. Neonazi regime in the border zone, this is what they have been doing for all the years, starting from 2014, when we tried to resolve this conflict peacefully, nothing, unfortunately, worked out, and we were forced to start protecting our people in these territories with the help armed forces, but the more effectively you work. On the line of combat contact, the more chances we have to resolve this issue peacefully. We have always strived for this, i have always talked about it. The actions of combat units in the zone of a special military operation, the president emphasizes, are effective and timely. As for the general staff of the entire structure that ensures combat work, there are no changes here and are not planned, i want this to be clear to everyone, therefore. This is the combat block work, it has settled down, it functions rhythmically, it operates successfully, and no changes are expected here. In the same room, but with the participation of civilian specialists , they are discussing how to provide the russian army with the most modern weapons. It is this team that includes the head of the largest Russian Defense giant rostec, chemizov, and the secretary of the Security Council, shaigu. Deputy chairman of the Security Council medvedev, minister of defense belausov, first deputy Prime Minister manturov, head of the ministry of industry and trade alikhanov, president ial assistant dyumin will be involved in technological provision of the armed forces. The new minister of industrial development, industry, is also not new to this area, you worked anton andreevich in the ministry of industry before, now bearing in mind your developments in the territory, he understands what is needed for this. So that the work goes even more successfully, the same applies to alexey gennadievich dyumin, he has been appointed assistant to the president , one of the most important areas that he will be involved in will be precisely providing government assistance to our companies, including rostec company in solving the tasks that they face in terms of providing our armed forces with the necessary means, well, about dmitry. In order to absorb all the best, all the most modern, all that can and should be used for successful work on the battlefield by our guys, our fighters, our heroes of a special military operation, we know that the more effective the weapons, the more accurate they are, the more powerful they are, the fewer losses we have, and this is a key issue when conducting an armed struggle, for us in any case, i really hope that all this will be used, now we have already said this many times, who masters it faster . The latest means of armed struggle, he wins. Any technological breakthrough in this area will certainly lead to breakthroughs in enemy defenses on the battlefield in the zone of a special military operation.
