“GLOBAL TIMES” NEWSPAPER MEDIA OF THE COMMUNIST PARTY OF CHINA
Through practical actions, China and Russia continue to enrich their comprehensive strategic partnership in the new era, outlining a clearer profile of a new type of international relationship, which not only provides the world with momentum for development, but also serves as a valuable point reference and model. China-Russia resistance to Western interference has strengthened significantly, and the noise generated by the US and the G7 countries serves as a reverse motivation for further progress.
On the afternoon of May 24, Chinese President Xi Jinping met with Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Mikhail Mishustin, who was on an official visit to China, in the Great Hall of the People in Beijing. On the same day, Mishustin also held talks with Chinese Premier Li Qiang. China and Russia signed a series of bilateral agreements on cooperation in trade in services, sports, patents and exports of Russian millet to China, showing the important results of Mishustin’s first visit to China since he became Prime Minister. Russian. Increasing the quality of Sino-Russian economic and trade cooperation, coupled with a full tank of oil, will propel them into the further and broader future.
The size and level of the Russian delegation and the number of businessmen accompanying Mishustin are rare in recent years. The main objective of the visit was to launch cooperation projects and further expand economic cooperation. In March this year, President Xi successfully paid a state visit to Russia and outlined with President Vladimir Putin the plan for the development of Sino-Russian relations and cooperation in various fields. This visit of Mishustin to China is promoting the implementation of the blueprint, and with the joint efforts of China and Russia, it will become a road map and construction plan, and eventually become a beautiful reality. As a result, the China-Russia economic revitalization will receive continued strong momentum, and more people from both countries will feel and enjoy the tangible benefits brought by mutually beneficial cooperation.
The rich practice of the China-Russia comprehensive strategic partnership of coordination in the new era tells us that when the political mutual trust between the two countries reaches a certain level, the world suddenly opens up, presenting opportunities and potential for mutually beneficial cooperation. . In addition to the traditional energy trade, Russia is focusing on deepening the integration of the Far East Special Advanced Economic Zones with the revitalization of Northeast China, promoting the liquidation of the Yuan in finance, strengthening cooperation in infrastructure construction, and improving the level of connectivity of cross-border transport is continually increasing, all of which offers great scope for the imagination. Some issues from the past have also been resolved, and blockages and bottlenecks have been gradually removed. Of course, the path must be taken step by step, and China-Russia comprehensive cooperation continues to advance.
This is the essence of the new type of relationship between great countries, and we suggest that Washington take it seriously. Because Washington’s narrow-mindedness has no place in China or Russia, making even the vast Pacific Ocean seem narrow. The Western media, whose minds are full of confrontation, are nervous to see normal cooperation between China and Russia. They advocate that China and Russia “join forces to resist the West” or stir up the old chant of “Russia depends on China” to stir up enmity in Sino-Russian relations. Is it possible for the United States to contain and suppress China, isolate Russia in all respects, and also try to undermine China-Russia relations?
The root of this permanent divisive American attitude lies in its uncontrollable hegemonic impulses and in the fear of the so-called “China-Russia alliance”, considered the greatest geopolitical nightmare for Washington. These two factors create an internal conflict and a psychological tension that the US cannot resolve. The tense atmosphere over the Asia-Pacific region is essentially an outward manifestation of the White House’s geopolitical anxieties. Discussing global issues in front of a world map displayed in his office, Washington’s armchair strategists can only perceive threats and adversaries. With their meddling, they cause a self-fulfilling prophecy, pushing countries that could have been potential partners to the opposite side of the. American and creating the most serious strategic risks of these times.
We often stress that China-Russia cooperation is not directed against third parties or subject to interference or coercion from third parties. This principle guides China’s interactions not only with Russia, but also with all countries, including those in Europe, the Middle East and neighboring regions. It contrasts sharply with the practices of hegemonism: one emphasizes “non-targeting” and “non-interference and coercion”, while the other is dedicated precisely to “targeting”, “interference” and “coercion” in everyone. The former has created amazing miracles of peace and development, while the latter has left countless scars and conflicts.
Through practical actions, China and Russia continue to enrich the content of their comprehensive strategic partnership of coordination in the new era, outlining a clearer profile of a new type of international relationship, which not only provides the world with momentum for development, but also it also serves as a valuable reference point and model. The resistance of China-Russia cooperation against interference has been significantly strengthened, and the noise generated by the US and Western countries serves as a reverse motivation for us to move forward. As the famous Tang Dynasty poem quoted by Mishustin during his visit to China says: “You will enjoy a grander view, if you climb to a higher height.”
