CNN  

CNN — Russian President Vladimir Putin will visit China later this year, for his first meetings with senior Chinese officials since being elected for a fourth term. Chinese President Xi Jinping visited Russia last year, and during an Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation meeting in November, the two leaders promised to enhance bilateral ties and cooperation on international affairs. Video Ad Feedback Village enshrined as monument to Xi Jinping 02:43 - Source: CNN Multipolar world Following intense western sanctions in the wake of Russia’s invasion of Crimea, Beijing upped its economic support for Moscow, and both countries have long supported each other at the United Nations on issues such as North Korea and Syria, where they are in opposition to or disagreement with the US. According to Chinese state media, the June summit is intended to make the organization “more cohesive, effective and influential,” in part by building on China’s activity in promoting its Belt and Road economic project, which includes a broad swath of central and southeast Asia and parts of Africa, and has been accused of being “neo-imperialist.” Through the SCO, regional military leaders often meet to discuss security issues, such as separatism, terrorism and extremism.
