President Xi Jinping's state visit to Russia this month has further bolstered ties between Beijing and Moscow and highlighted the fight against unilateralism and US hegemony.
The president's trip marked the 80th anniversary of the Soviet Union's victory over Nazi Germany, as well as China's victory over Japan, in the Second World War.
