Beijing and Moscow hit out on Thursday (Oct 22) at “destructive external interference” in Eurasia, in a joint statement during a visit to Russia by Premier Li Qiang where he met President Vladimir Putin and Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin.
“The two sides pointed out that destructive external interference is the primary factor currently undermining stability across the Eurasian continent,” the joint statement published by Xinhua said.
“The two sides firmly condemn any acts of external coercion involving the use of force which are aimed at disrupting the process of Eurasian solidarity,” it added.”
Both sides will always firmly support each other on issues involving one another’s core interests and major concerns,” the statement also said.
