The upcoming meeting of the heads of China and Russia at the Winter Olympic Games will help stop the attempts of the United States and the West to politicize sports
Chinese Ambassador to Russia Zhang Hanhui said that China and Russia should deepen strategic cooperation
"The United States, together with its Western allies, is exerting exhaustive pressure on China and Russia - in political, economic, military, humanitarian, security sectors, in science and technology, exercising "extraterritorial jurisdiction" and applying sanctions against government departments, enterprises and personnel of both countries voluntarily in an attempt to restrain development of China and Russia. In response to such undisguised hegemony and the policy of force, we must continue to deepen strategic back-to-back cooperation and strengthen its practical side in various areas in order to react effectively and counter the "double containment" of the United States and the West," the Chinese ambassador said in an interview with the Izvestia newspaper published on Thursday.
