Russia and China have agreed to jointly oppose all forms of unilateral intimidation, the Chinese Foreign Ministry said following a meeting between Wang Yi, head of the office of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the Communist Party of China and Secretary of the Russian Security Council Nikolai Patrushev.

During the meeting, the two sides discussed the current international strategic situation and expressed their willingness to jointly practice true multilateralism, oppose all forms of unilateral bullying, and promote democracy in international relations and a multi-polar world.

Both parties believe that peace and stability in the Asia-Pacific region should be firmly maintained and that the introduction of Cold War mentality, bloc confrontation and ideological conflict should be opposed.

The two sides also exchanged views on the Ukrainian issue among others.
