Putin and Xi were expected to touch on issues related to Ukraine, a spokesman said, adding that Russia's president would likely offer a “detailed explanation' of Moscow's view on the current situation.
Russian President Vladimir Putin meets with Chinas President Xi Jinping at the Kremlin in Moscow on March 20, 2023.
Putin sent Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko to the Russian capital's Vnukovo airport to meet Xi after he stepped off his Boeing 747. Back at the airport, Xi listened as a Russian military band played the national anthems of China and Russia. He then walked past a line of honorary guards accompanied by Chernyshenko.
Xi responded in kind, saying he was sure that Putin would receive strong support in the presidential election next year, even though the Russian leader hasn't yet declared his intention to run. Moscow, which doesn't recognize the court's jurisdiction, dismissed the move as "legally null and void," but it further ramped up the pressure on the Russian leader.
