The trade turnover between Russia and China is “really impressive,” Russian President Vladimir Putin said at a press conference after negotiations with Chinese President Xi Jinping.
“The volume of trade turnover that we are talking about today is really impressive. We set ourselves the goal of achieving $200 billion in 2024, and when we formulated this in 2019, I’ll tell you frankly, few people believed that this was even possible,” he said.
According to him, at that time the trade turnover between the Russian Federation and the PRC was $100 billion, and now “it’s already $200 billion ahead of schedule.”
