Russia announced on Sunday that Chinese President Xi Jinping will arrive in Moscow on an official visit from May 7 to 10, coinciding with events marking the 80th anniversary of the Soviet Union's victory in World War II.
According to a statement from the Kremlin, Xi was invited by Russian President Vladimir Putin and will participate in the Victory Day ceremonies in the Russian capital.
Talks between the two leaders will address “main issues concerning the development of bilateral ties,” as well as “current issues of the international and regional agenda,” the Kremlin said. A number of bilateral intergovernmental and interdepartmental documents are also expected to be signed during the visit.
Last month, Putin confirmed to Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi that Xi would be the main guest at the May 9 celebrations.
Victory Day, observed annually on May 9, commemorates the surrender of Nazi Germany in World War II. It is marked by a military parade in Moscow’s Red Square and is celebrated across Russia and other former Soviet states.
