China's Foreign Minister Wang Yi and Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Andrei Rudenko discussed the Ukraine crisis in talks on Wednesday and Wang reaffirmed Beijing's strong ties with Moscow, the Chinese foreign ministry said.
Wang reiterated China and Russia's strong relations, that were not affected by "changes in the international situation".
"Both sides should make joint efforts to coordinate cooperation in various fields and exchanges at all levels," he said, without elaboration.
The visit takes place as Russia's war in Ukraine appeared to take a dangerous new turn, with NATO and South Korea expressing alarm that North Korean troops could soon be joining Moscow's side.
Rudenko said that countries of the post-Soviet space will always be among Russia's geopolitical priorities.
"Wherever these countries go, no matter how they develop, they will always be a priority, among our geopolitical priorities, regardless of the geopolitical context," RIA cited Rudenko
