The situation in the capital of china, how our president was greeted, i want details, we are now in the house of the people, this is actually the very place where today throughout the first half of the day, now we have its already past lunch time in beijing , negotiations are taking place in all formats, and we wanted to show you this building a little, but since the great hall of the people is the largest Parliament Building in the whole world, its certainly not easy like this, well, this is how you look back, a huge majestic space. And in some of them, in the most comfortable halls most suitable for negotiations, the negotiations actually took place today, today we have already completed negotiations in the so called narrow format, in the socalled expanded, wide format, then the leaders went to the press, in in their presence , about ten agreements were signed, the leaders signed a joint statement and made statements for journalists, as they met, well, here we are. Now we are in the building, but in fact it is located on that very famous chinese square, sacred to all chinese, tianan, at some point the traffic around this square on all roads stopped, it immediately became clear that at 0 at 0 at 0 00 minutes, as planned at 11 00, Vladimir Putins cartage will arrive here, and from afar we saw his aurus approaching, by the way, ill immediately note, the first generation aurus, because the one we saw at the entrance ceremony in office throughout apparently, so far only in a single copy, it is in moscow, well, we watched as. The approach of Vladimir Putins motorcade was led by motorcyclists , accordingly, the local chinese, then a magnificent, very bright and solemn ceremony, well, because, accordingly , a state visit, this is exactly the format meeting means the president of the peoples republic of china sidin pin personally met Vladimir Putin at the car, then a colossal delegation of delegations lined up on the steps of this house of the people, when we talk about negotiations in narrow composition in ordinary, in an ordinary case during some ordinary visit, also abroad, we mean that in them. Its difficult to say, but we are talking about two or three expanded composition, ill be honest , about 15 people delegation with each on the other hand, in dozens, these are our members of the renewed cabinet of ministers and, naturally, the captain of russian business, here everything happens at the same time, and then there really was a former magnificent bright welcoming ceremony, as you already said, evenings near moscow were performed military orchestra, at the moment when the anthems of the two countries were being played, first the russian one, then. First the russian anthem, and then the chinese anthem, cannon shots thundered in tianyan menn square, artillery was stationed there, an artillery battery, such a counter salute in honor Vladimir Putin. Konstantin, what are your expectations from the negotiations, and maybe there are some preliminary results and outcomes . Well, here are the preliminary results, the results are exactly what i told you, signed a joint statement, it has. A very large and complex name, but in short, this statement is timed to coincide with the seventyfifth anniversary of relations, the establishment of relations between russia and china, in this regard , the statement itself of the two leaders, it takes up more than 30 pages, has already been signed 10 intergovernmental agreements, but keeping in mind that a huge number of captains of russian business work here in the fields, from rdif to rosneft, everyone naturally has negotiations, everyone naturally has deals, and the most important thing is that these are negotiations are continuing, right now we are behind us, i have already told you how many rounds negotiations in different compositions right now on the third floor here in the house of the people , up this majestic staircase, up there , a gala reception on behalf of sijinping is now ending, and there now the russian chinese delegation is here, then there will be a short break, Vladimir Putin and sidin pin will separate for a while so that Vladimir Putin will spend time right here , in the same building, right where he is now journalists gather, negotiations with the chairman of the state council of the peoples republic of china, the person. Another big event, a grandiose concert dedicated again to the seventyfifth anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations, at some point the leaders will leave the hall and go to the socalled oneonone negotiations, theta negotiations, and even on the eve of this state visit i am communicating with journalists, president ial assistant yuri ushakov said this is the most important thing, this is the format in which Vladimir Putin and sidinpin traditionally communicate oneonone, this was in moscow in beijing last year, this time they will drink tea, and they will also. Walk through the park, which is located in the closed area of the residence of shizenpin himself. The duration of this format of negotiations, the most important, at which the most Critical Issues will be discussed, including the ukrainian conflict, is not limited in duration; as a rule, it takes from one and a half to 2 hours to 34, as it was in moscow. Well, after this there will be another format of negotiations, it will be a dinner to which invitees, in addition to heads of state format. Called 1 4, that is, four members of the delegation accompany each of the leaders, Vladimir Putin will be accompanied by sergei lavrov, yuri ushakov, the new minister of defense, Andrei Belousov and the new secretary of the Security Council sergei shaigov. Konstantin, please tell us the secrets of the journalistic pool that is covering this story. I know that our journalists communicate very closely with the chinese in a friendly manner, but how many of the western press are showing interest in this. Visit , how open they are to communication behind the scenes, lets just say, its not an official introduction, its just like that between each other, how well you communicate, well , you know, with chinese journalists here , of course, everything is great with us, we talk with them, give interviews to each other, we already know many of them, well, lets put it this way , not the first year, because they come to visit us and saw each other and got acquainted in the kremlin, and then we came here to visit in this very house of peoples assemblies, only last fall, when Vladimir Putin came here, we worked here. We are with them in wonderful relations, and as for the western press, well, naturally, enormous attention is focused on you there, even probably from moscow you can see how significant and vividly this attention is focused on the russianchinese negotiations, but here in the house of the people there are no western journalists, there are only us here, russians and chinese, in general, in these gigantic spaces there is really no one else. Thank you very much, Konstantin Panyushkin was in direct contact with us, it was not for nothing that he emphasized western journalists, so konstantin noted, that they werent there, they probably werent allowed in, or didnt want to go, but this topic, Vladimir Putins visit to china, is now the number one topic in all the world media, the United States cant calm down that the world is no longer unipolar, the press writes that the meeting putin and sizenpin will be shown by the growing power of the antiamerican alliance. Diplomats and Analysts Expect putin to push for continued xi support for russias military economy, from machinechemicals for the military industry to heavily discounted oil and gas purchases. Putins trip is likely will largely symbolize a general worldview focused on countering the us. China needs russia on its side to undermine the americanled world order in a longterm struggle for geopolitical supremacy. Well, americans like. Mom, we should study not only ohms law, but also the new law of resistance of people from countries who disagree with the United States. Well, naturally, the west is afraid that someone will unite and be friends against it, but Vladimir Putin during his speech stated that relations between russia and china are not directed against anyone. It is of fundamental importance that relations between russia and china are not opportunistic. And is not directed against anyone. Our cooperation in World Affairs today is one of the main stabilizing factors in the international arena. Together we defend the principles of justice and a democratic world order that reflects multipolar realities and a world order based on international law. Russia and china successfully interact in the un, brix, sco, as well as in the group. We are committed to further harmonization of integration processes in the eurasian space, combining the potentials of the European Union and yours, dear friend, initiatives, one belt, one road, well, in general, no matter what we do, its your own fault, this is the unshakable, eternal motto of the west even on the eve of our arrival Vladimir Putin, Chinese Foreign minister, said that the United States. Went crazy trying to maintain their unipolar hegemony. During some time, the United States imposed unilateral sanctions against china and abused it. Tariffs have almost reached the point of insanity, putting pressure on the normal trade, economic, scientific and technological activities of china. This is the most typical form of bullying in the modern world. This shows that some people in the United States have gone crazy to maintain their unipolar hegemony. There is no place for a closed militarypolitical alliance in the asiaPacific Region. This statement was made by Vladimir Putin during a meeting with sidinpin. Our negotiations once again demonstrated that the approaches of russia and china to Many International and regional problems are close or coincide. Both countries pursue an independent and independent Foreign Policy. We are working together to form a more just and democratic multipolar world order, which should be based on the central role of the United Nations and its council. Security, international law, cultural and civilizational diversity, a balanced balance of interests of all participants world community. We consider it necessary to work towards building a reliable and Adequate Security architecture in the asiaPacific Region, in which there is no place for closed militarypolitical alliances. We believe that it is very harmful and counterproductive to create such alliances. We agreed with the chairman in detail. Discuss the entire complex of Foreign Policy agenda at an informal, informal meeting this evening. Of course, i, for my part, will inform the chairman of the peoples republic of china about the situation, which is developing around the ukrainian crisis. We are grateful to our chinese friends and colleagues for the initiatives they are putting forward to resolve this problem. Alexander davych, the whole world is watching this meeting, what are we waiting for and what is the west expecting . Yes, our expectations were divided, thats for sure, in general the fears of the west are very well illustrated by the words of Sergei Viktorovich viktorovich lavrov, which he said on the eve of his visit to the consultation, the famous phrase the duo of moscow and beijing plays the most important balancing role. Beijing is not only about the relations between russia and china, the duet of connections and relations between russia and china is the whole world, and this is the cornerstone and basis of the wests concern, because the rators agency, which you quoted today, is disingenuous when it says that this visit is directed against the west or the usa, of course not. We have never been friends against anyone, if against anyone, then against an outdated, collapsing unipolar world, against an unjust world that has already demonstrated its inconsistency, this is the main and main thing, so the visit of Vladimir Vladimirovich putin to china is a step in this direction, and we already know that all the conversations, negotiations themselves, they will be. Not for anyone in the world, and we we will achieve this. Alexander valerievich, well, its no secret that the United States is trying to put pressure on china, and sidinpins recent visit to europe once again emphasized this; the intention of ursula vonderlein and macron to influence china is obvious. This visit of Vladimir Putin to china, its clear that look, what attention, what a scope, yes, what a meeting, he must irritate the United States, what leverage . Will be further applied to china, well , you know, in fact, every visit of Vladimir Vladimirovich to china, it is always held at such a high level, we always see how highly our president is received, this testifies to the personal friendship between the heads of our countries, of course this testifies also about the fact that the relationship between our countries is really a relationship not on paper, not in words, not for show, but this relationship truly universal. We say so, yes, well, in fact we say the west, we mean the United States of america, well , what are the actual measures, in particular , at the beginning of this year we had quite significant difficulties with payments between our countries, that is, it is clear that in the west they see that we have learned to bypass a number of sanctions, we generally interact successfully, but the Banking System of china, the peoples republic of china, it is of course very closely behind. In terms of trade turnover, but in april, in general, we are in some kind of. Then the degree was played out, it will be in the future will the United States continue to try to slow down our economic cooperation, in particular, how far can they go . Well, they can, the further, the more, introduce a large number of sanctions against the financial and economic sector of the prc, so our task is now to reach a fundamental understanding with china about what we must really do in this area breakthrough, deepen interaction. Dmitry, what is in this meeting, what is more politics, security or economics . Well, as we recently found out, the most important thing in this world is the economy. So, accordingly, judging by the personnel assignments, and as for what is happening in china, well, of course, now the most important thing here is the agreements, a significant number of which relate to fiscal control, this is primarily about the export of agricultural products, the agroindustrial complex. There two agreements were signed by the federal customs service, the main problem was passing customs control, the volume of supplies is estimated at 7. 6 billion dollars, accordingly there is rapid growth, taking into account the fact that in the near future this may be one of the most promising areas, this agriculture is an important mainline solution, both seafood and, accordingly, following meat farming, this is a promising area, the second is very important. The point concerns the fact that, well , energy in a stalinist form, accordingly, rosne has its agreements, accordingly, Nuclear Power plants, which are built accordingly on blocks according to the design of rusatom, this question will be substantively to be discussed, coal is now a big problem associated with the chinese direction, there is , first of all, a problem with logistics, the expansion of the eastern corridor, the eastern test site, and accordingly it is reduced, with duties actually being canceled as if in order for you. To bring up the economy, by the way, these negotiations, including tsivilevs, are especially relevant, taking into account the fact that he represents the kemerovo region itself, which, strictly speaking, specializes in coal, in addition, with regard to negotiations on financial transactions, i remind you that on december 22, bidens order, bidens decree, and accordingly there were seriously limited opportunities, the secondary market was introduced there, so they periodically put financial organizations at the core of the chinese banking sector, about five of the largest stateowned banks. Which were partially privatized and passed the presidency, but control remains there, so they are, accordingly , very much tied to the external perimeter, now approximately 70 of all transactions go through small companies, small banks, financial organizations that do not actually have external perimeters, which is why they can easily integrate, now negotiations will be conducted regarding connection to the unified system for exchanging financial information, replacements for swift, negotiations will be conducted within the perimeter of the central bank, the question is how they will be completed taking into account some of the peculiarities of the matter. The fact is that china, as you know, seems to have banned crypt, that is, it is prohibited, accordingly, but at the same time digital is being implemented quite actively, i remind you that, for example, it is already used in applications by a number of chinese organizations, which is why the question of gateways, how we will now interact with each other, is a slightly open question, as for the interesting component, then of course the most interesting question will be related to fours 4. 1 4 1, thats because , firstly, we have continuity in the ministry of defense, and secondly, there is a corresponding situa
