On May 16, China and Russia jointly signed and issued the Joint Statement of the People's Republic of China and the Russian Federation on Deepening the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership of Coordination in the New Era on the Occasion of the 75th Anniversary of the Establishment of Diplomatic Relations between the two countries.
After carefully reading the "Sino-Russian Joint Statement", it is different from previous cooperation, and these points are worth paying attention to.
First, China and Russia are getting closer and closer, and they share the same position and attitude on almost all issues. This statement is the first time that the United States has been publicly criticized by name. This is unusual and shows that the two sides have reached a consensus on anti-Americanism. For example, the two countries strongly condemn the deployment of U.S. missiles in the Asia-Pacific region and Europe, which pose a direct threat to the security of Russia and China.
The statement publicly criticized the United States by name for the first time, showing the close cooperation between the two countries in international affairs, enhancing strategic mutual trust and coordination, challenging the unipolar world order, promoting the development of multipolarity, and conveying a consistent position to the international community, balancing the influence of Western media, consolidating the Sino-Russian strategic partnership, and having a far-reaching impact on the global political landscape.
Second, China and Russia have strengthened cooperation on the Beidou and GLONASS satellite navigation systems. This has important strategic, technical and economic value. By establishing ground stations in each country, the accuracy and reliability of navigation systems will be improved, and the dependence on the United States GPS will be reduced, and each country's military and technical capabilities will be enhanced.
China and Russia have set up ground stations in each other's countries with the aim of improving the navigation accuracy and reliability of the Beidou and GLONASS systems.
Third, the two sides should improve their financial infrastructure, facilitate local currency settlements, and issue bonds in each other's financial markets. The issuance of bonds in the financial markets of the other country will promote the interconnection of the financial markets of the two countries, enhance the depth and breadth of the capital markets, and enhance the level of bilateral investment and financing cooperation. Through these financial measures, the stability and international status of the currencies of the two countries can be enhanced, and the voice of the two countries in the international financial system can be enhanced.
Fourth, the two sides will jointly develop the Black Blind Island and engage in constructive dialogue with the DPRK on the navigation of Chinese ships through the lower reaches of the Tumen River. The joint development of the Black Blind Island by China and Russia and the constructive dialogue with the DPRK on the passage of Chinese ships to sea in the lower reaches of the Tumen River are of great economic, geopolitical and diplomatic value. This will promote the economic development of the border areas, strengthen the stability and depth of cooperation between China and Russia and China and North Korea, improve the efficiency of regional transportation, and enhance China's influence in Northeast Asia, which will have a positive impact on the regional and global geopolitical landscape.
Fifth, strengthen media cooperation between the two sides, jointly carry out anti-Western propaganda, and promote visa-free group tours between the two sides. China and Russia have strengthened media cooperation, jointly carried out anti-Western propaganda, and promoted visa-free group tours between the two sides, which have the value of enhancing the influence of international public opinion, consolidating strategic partnerships, promoting tourism and economic development, and deepening cultural exchanges. This will enhance the voice of the two countries in international affairs, promote economic cooperation, enhance people-to-people understanding, and further strengthen bilateral relations.
