"In recent years, China has made a tremendous breakthrough in its development. It causes genuine interest all over the world, and we even envy you a little," he added.

Putin highlighted the balanced relations between the two countries on international issues, confirming that Moscow is aware that China is deeply interested in developing ties with Russia.

"I know that you personally, all our Chinese friends pay great attention to the development of Russian-Chinese relations, take a fair, balanced position on most pressing international problems."
