Putin hits back at claims by 'jealous people' that Russia is becoming dependent on China, days after meeting with Xi Jinping
Putin dismissed claims that Russia is too dependent on China as coming from "jealous people."
In televised remarks, Russia's president said Russia valued its "mutual relationship" with China.
The remarks come a few days after Putin met with China's President Xi Jinping.
Russian President Vladimir Putin rejected suggestions that Moscow is becoming overly dependent on China on Sunday, just a few days after meeting with China's President Xi Jinping.
"We are not creating any military alliance with China," Putin said in televised remarks, "Yes, we have cooperation in the sphere of military-technical interaction. We are not hiding this," according to Reuters.
Putin also said on Russian state television that views of those criticizing the economic ties between the two countries come from "jealous people."
He added that "many have desired turning China against the Soviet Union and Russia, and vice versa," saying that Russia valued its "mutual relationship" with China.
Not long before Putin's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, China and Russia signed a strategic "no limits" partnership that has since deepened.
