Russia and China’s foreign ministers held talks in Beijing, focusing on their respective relations with the United States and exploring possible solutions to the conflict in Ukraine, according to statements from both countries' foreign ministries.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov met with his Chinese counterpart, Wang Yi, ahead of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) foreign ministers' meeting. Discussions included global coordination and mutual support across international platforms such as the United Nations, BRICS, the G20, APEC, and the SCO.
China’s Foreign Ministry highlighted the importance of maintaining close ties to support each other’s development and to face global uncertainties together. The two sides also exchanged views on regional issues, including the Korean Peninsula and Iran’s nuclear programme.
China and Russia reaffirmed their strategic alignment, first declared in their 2022 "no limits" partnership just before Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine. While Russia considers China a close ally, the U.S. views Beijing as a primary strategic rival and Moscow as its top national security threat.
