As you see, both leaders are quite pleased as they exchanged copies of the newest Joint Declaration between the two partner nations prior to making their remarks to the assembled media and dignitaries.
The Expo is an event at Harbin, the VIII Russian-Chinese EXPO. Here's what the Kremlin said today about the event:
"The President of Russia also I examined Russian and Chinese exhibition stands.
"VIII Russian-Chinese The EXPO is being held in Harbin on May 17-21, 2024. The exhibition takes place annually since 2014 with alternating countries and is an important trade and industry platform that promotes expanding and diversifying the partnership between Russia and China.
"EXPO traditionally includes a large-scale exhibition exposition. In 2024 innovative developments and joint Russian-Chinese projects in the field of mechanical engineering, metallurgy, solutions for energy, Information Technologies, Production Financing, Logistics and Others Destinations. Particular attention at the exhibition is paid to the presentation of tourism potential of Russia.
"This year The IV Russian-Chinese Forum is being held within the framework of the EXPO on interregional cooperation. It is attended by 28 constituent entities of the Russian Federation."
I loved the last paragraph! Thanks for posting, Karl.
Thanks for this Karl - very important as you say
I didn't spot the inexplicable gaffe, but it's insignificant among the overwhelming mass of statements and transcripts
XWhen will the Joint Declarations be published?
That document is here in Russian, http://kremlin.ru/supplement/6132 I'll have it posted tomorrow in English.
Thanks Karl
