AFPPIX: Russian President Vladimir Putin arrived in China on Tuesday to meet his “dear friend” Xi Jinping, bolstering their relationship at a summit that will be overshadowed by the Israel-Hamas war.
“During the talks, special attention will be paid to international and regional issues,“ it said, without elaborating. “Russia is aware that China doesn’t want to sign any high publicity deals,“ Alexander Gabuev, director of the Carnegie Russia Eurasia Center, told AFP.The Kremlin said the two leaders would meet on Wednesday “on the sidelines” of the BRI forum.Israel declared war on the Islamist group after waves of Hamas fighters broke through the heavily fortified border with Gaza on October 7, shooting, stabbing, and burning to death more than 1,400 people, most of them civilians.
Western officials have criticised Beijing for not naming Hamas in statements on the Israel-Gaza conflict. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov thanked China for inviting Putin as the summit’s “chief guest”, according to a readout from Moscow, which later said the top diplomat would head to North Korea after Beijing.
