[Compiler Guan Shuping/Comprehensive Report] Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov held an annual press conference on the 18th, praising Russia and China. China therefore wins over the West to encircle China and Russia, and he also criticizes the West for provoking China on issues such as Taiwan and Tibet.

Lavrov said that the West regards both Russia and China as threats: Russia is the present, while China is a longer-term institutional opponent; but the United States is not strong enough to independently restrain Russia and China at the same time, so it has to "mobilize" Europe, Japan and China. Other countries have joined in supporting Washington's anti-Beijing political agenda to contain China and Russia.

He said that the relationship between Russia and China has never been stronger than it is today. The joint military exercises between the two countries have strengthened their new strategic partnership. "The two countries are neither an alliance nor an alliance, but stronger than the alliance."

He accused the West of trying to sow discord in Russia-China relations, "both we and China understand these tricks."

Lavrov also pointed out that the West is trying to provoke China, "They have outlined their position on the Taiwan issue, which is absolutely not accepted by China and international law; they are looking for more opportunities to annoy China on Tibet, Xinjiang and Hong Kong issues ", Therefore, "China understands very well that staying within the Western system and completely relying on the West is full of very serious risks for China's fundamental national development interests."
