Chinese President Xi Jinping hailed relations with Russia as better than an alliance in a video call with President Vladimir Putin, according to the Kremlin, as the two leaders made a show of solidarity amid rising tensions with the West.
 
Xi “said that although they are not allied, their effectiveness even exceeds this level,” Kremlin foreign policy aide Yuri Ushakov said. “I consider our relations a true model of interstate cooperation for the 21st century,“ Putin said.
