Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s opening remarks during a meeting with Foreign Minister of China Qin Gang on the sidelines of the G20 Foreign Ministers’ meeting, New Delhi, March 2, 2023

Once again, please accept my congratulations on your appointment as Foreign Minister of the People’s Republic of China. I am certain that by working together we will be able to ensure continuity and steady progress in all areas, as agreed by our leaders, including during their February 4, 2022, summit in Beijing.

Moscow and Beijing reaffirmed their shared commitment to these agreements and the overall policy line traced by our leaders during the visit to the Russian Federation by Member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, Director of the Office of the CPC Central Foreign Affairs Commission Wang Yi in late February 2023.

We have far-reaching plans for developing bilateral cooperation in all spheres and a packed foreign policy agenda, considering the overall stabilising role Russia and China play in international relations.
