China will support Russia and its economy, opening up its markets to the Russian regime - China expert Poita

He shared his opinion life on air told on Espreso TV channel.

"This so-called borderless friendship has clearly defined borders at this time, which are determined by the fact that PRC does not yet help Russian Federation militarily or militarily-technically. Or does not help Russian Federation on a large scale to circumvent sanctions imposed on Russia", Yuriy Poita said.

Head of Asia-Pacific section of the New Geopolitics Research Network noted that China-Russian relations will only deepen, because China is determined to support Russia and its economy.

"But still, we see the strengthening of interaction between these countries. And I think that in the short and long term, this trend will remain and, nevertheless, relations will deepen. China will support Russian Federation and its economy, including by providing its markets for political regime that currently exists in Russia", he added.
