Russian and Chinese Embassy Staff in London Play Table Tennis to Mark Anniversary of Strategic Partnership

London — Staff of the Russian and Chinese embassies in London held a joint table tennis training session on April 29. The sporting event was timed to coincide with important anniversaries in Russian-Chinese relations: the 25th anniversary of the signing of the Treaty of Good-Neighbourliness, Friendship and Cooperation, and the 30th anniversary of the bilateral relationship being formally elevated to the status of “strategic interaction.”

The event, which brought together employees from both diplomatic missions, took place in a spirit of camaraderie and mutual support. It is precisely this spirit that today unites Russia and China in confronting shared challenges and in pursuing a consistent policy aimed at strengthening global and regional security.
