China and Russia have condemned what they described as “destructive external interference” in Eurasia, calling it a major threat to regional stability.
The statement came during Chinese Premier Li Qiang’s visit to Russia, where he met Russian President Vladimir Putin and Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin. The two countries reiterated their commitment to protecting their national interests and strengthening bilateral cooperation.
Joint Statement Warns Against External Pressure
According to a joint statement published by China’s state news agency Xinhua, Beijing and Moscow consider external interference the primary factor undermining stability across the Eurasian continent.
Both countries also criticised the use of force and external coercion aimed at disrupting regional unity and cooperation.
The statement emphasised that China and Russia would continue supporting each other on matters involving their core interests and major concerns.
China specifically expressed support for Russia’s security, stability, national unity, sovereignty and territorial integrity. It also opposed what it described as interference by foreign forces in Russia’s internal affairs.
China and Russia Strengthen Bilateral Cooperation
Li’s visit highlighted ongoing efforts by Beijing and Moscow to deepen their strategic partnership amid international tensions.
The two governments have continued expanding cooperation in areas such as trade, energy, investment and regional diplomacy. Both sides have also stressed the importance of coordination through multilateral platforms.
Their latest statement reflects shared concerns about external pressure and its potential impact on regional relationships.
However, the statement did not identify specific countries responsible for the interference it criticised.
Possible Three-Way Meeting Remains Under Discussion
The statement made no reference to a possible meeting involving Putin, Chinese President Xi Jinping and US President Donald Trump.
Kremlin aide Yuri Ushakov said on Wednesday that officials were preparing for a possible first-ever meeting between the three leaders. He said organisers hoped to include it in the programme of the Asia-Pacific summit scheduled for November in Shenzhen, China.
The proposed meeting has not been confirmed in the joint statement.
China and Russia’s latest declaration underscores their intention to maintain close ties while opposing actions they believe threaten regional stability and national sovereignty.
