(MENAFN) Russian President Vladimir Putin praised the “unprecedented” level of cooperation between Moscow and Beijing in a message to Chinese President Xi Jinping on the occasion of China’s 76th National Day, according to reports.

“Russian-Chinese relations are at an unprecedented level – this was fully confirmed by our recent thorough and constructive discussions in Tianjin and Beijing,” Putin said in the congratulatory message, which was published by the Kremlin.

Putin highlighted China’s ongoing progress in socioeconomic, scientific, and technological development, noting that the country has steadily strengthened its international standing while contributing to solutions for key global challenges.

He expressed confidence that agreements reached between the two nations would enhance bilateral partnerships and dialogue, as well as pave the way for new large-scale joint initiatives across multiple sectors.
