A Study on the Status of Russia in Chinas Diplomatic Strategy in the New Era

Abstract

In the context that the West, led by the United States, is still pursuing global hegemony and China and Russia are jointly committed to the rejuvenation of the nation state, China-Russia relations are not only strategic, special, and complementary, but also supporting each other’s status as a great power. The head of state diplomacy is the driving force for the comprehensive strategic partnership of coordination between the two countries in the new era. China-Russia relations are a model of major-country relations and a new type of international relations which are at their best in the history of the two countries. As two major countries in Europe and Asia, the Silk Road Economic Belt and the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) will work together to make up for the lack of economic and social links between the two countries. This cooperation will enhance great developmental prospects for mutual benefit and common development. At the same time, China-Russia relations are also complicated and sensitive. How to overcome the “bottleneck” in China-Russia relations, strengthen political mutual trust and cultural exchanges, and further promote China-Russia all-round cooperation and stable development of bilateral relations within the framework of the “One Belt and One Union” is a research project with great practical significance and theoretical value.
