Russia and China are ready to “resist emerging challenges and increasing external pressure” together, Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin said during a video meeting with his Chinese counterpart.
“Our countries have the same approach to many problems of our time,” Mishustin said on Monday, according to a statement issued by Moscow. “Together we advocate the formation of a multipolar architecture of international relations, and we are ready to jointly resist emerging challenges and increasing external pressure.”
Mishustin said China needs a successful Russia and positive developments have taken place between the two countries economically, particularly in trade.
“The global world order is undergoing a serious transformation,” the prime minister said. “Some Western states have decided that by using illegitimate economic sanctions, restrictions and political pressure, they can impose their own rules, regardless of the interests of others. Such attempts are doomed to failure.”
