China congratulates Putin on his election victory

China, Russia's key ally, on Monday congratulated Russian President Vladimir Putin on his election victory.

After 99 percent of the votes were counted, Putin won 87.33 percent of all votes, in an election process controlled by the Kremlin.

"China expresses its congratulations on this", said the spokesperson of the Chinese Foreign Ministry, Lin Jian, when asked about the elections.

"China and Russia are each other's biggest neighbors and biggest strategic partners in the new era," he said.

This figure in the election was a record for Putin in the presidential elections that did not have a real race.

"We strongly believe that under the strategic leadership of Chinese President Xi Jinping and President Putin, China-Russia relations will continue to move forward," Lin said, noting that this year marks the 75th anniversary of the establishment of ties between the two countries. .

Putin praised Beijing on Monday, saying that he is "sure that in the years to come, we will only strengthen and rebuild relations and achieve joint success for the benefit of the Chinese and Russian people." said the Russian news agency "TASS".

"The most important thing is the coincidence of state interests. This creates a good period for solving common problems in the field of international relations", Putin was quoted as saying.

The ties between the two countries have deepened after the start of Russia's war in Ukraine in February 2022, after China refused to condemn Moscow's attack on its European neighbor./ REL
