Chinese President Xi Jinping gave visiting Russian President Vladimir Putin China's first friendship medal on Friday, calling him his best friend, underscoring the close ties between the two despite deep reservations many Western nations have of Putin. Putin is in China for a weekend summit of the Chinese and Russian-led security bloc the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) in the port city of Qingdao, but dropped by Beijing first for talks with Xi.
Meeting in Beijing's Great Hall of the People, Xi lauded their relationship. "No matter what fluctuations there are in the international situation, China and Russia have always firmly taken the development of relations as a priority," Xi told Putin at the start of their formal talks.
Xi then awarded Putin China's first ever friendship medal, on a large gold coloured chain, an event carried live on state television. Xi, speaking just before he put the medal on Putin, called him a "good and old friend of the Chinese people".
"President Putin is the leader of a great country who is influential around the world," Xi said. "He is my best, most intimate friend." The two oversaw the signing of several agreements, including a joint $1 billion industrial investment fund.
Xi promised the two would continue to deepen their coordination on the world stage. "China and Russia are permanent members of the U.N. Security Council and are both great responsible countries," Xi said.
"Myself and President Putin agreed, in the face of a complex international situation, that China and Russia will increase mutual support and coordination in international affairs, and deepen strategic cooperation." Putin offered his thanks for the medal.

>Vladimir Putin Is My Best And Most Intimate Friend: Xi Jinping
Biden is a Chinese agent. Your president is a chinese spy.
Russia is based. Putin is the only one in the west who was rejecting china for ages. Until 2021-2022 when Biden (chinese spy) and west brainwashed white boys decide to start a war in ukraine against Donbas and probably Russia.

People who promote war in ukraine/war against russia - mostly Chinese and Biden bots.
Before that "war" Putin never really cooperated with Xi. Last year he rejected to work together with the Chinese on a big project.
After that, Biden and Blinked started to hate putin.

China's government wants to clone Stalin. Literally. Dig his remains out of the Kremlin wall and clone him.
