Russian President Vladimir Putin has issued a special video address on the eve of his state visit to China. According to Global Times, the video address, released on May 19, 2026, focused on Russia\u2019s bilateral relations with China, economic cooperation and the shared role of the two countries in the international landscape.<\/p>\n<p>The Russian president\u2019s visit comes at a time when U.S. President Donald Trump has recently completed his state visit to China. Analysts say Putin\u2019s visit immediately after Trump\u2019s trip clearly signals that Beijing continues to give priority to its strategic relationship with Moscow. The visit is expected to open possibilities for new agreements between the two countries in areas such as trade, energy cooperation, infrastructure development and regional security.<\/p>\n<p>In the video address, Putin reportedly described China Russia relations as a \u201ccomprehensive strategic partnership\u201d and stated that cooperation between the two countries contributes to stability in global politics. He also expressed enthusiasm about his upcoming meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping and said he expected bilateral relations to reach a new height.<\/p>\n<p>In recent years, Russia and China have significantly expanded cooperation in trade, energy, technology and military affairs. For Russia, which has been facing Western sanctions, China has become a major economic and strategic partner. Putin\u2019s visit is expected to further strengthen that relationship.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fb-background-color\">\n\t\t\t  <div \n\t\t\t  \tclass = \"fb-comments\" \n\t\t\t  \tdata-href = \"https:\/\/eng.dragonmedia.com.np\/?p=17139\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-numposts = \"10\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-lazy = \"true\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-colorscheme = \"light\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-order-by = \"time\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-mobile=true>\n\t\t\t  <\/div><\/div>\n\t\t  <style>\n\t\t    .fb-background-color {\n\t\t\t\tbackground: #ffffff !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t.fb_iframe_widget_fluid_desktop iframe {\n\t\t\t    width: 100% !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t  <\/style>\n\t\t  ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Moscow.
