Kremlin: Xi Jinping showed special attention to Putin

Chinese President Xi Jinping showed special attention and favor to Russian President Vladimir Putin, presidential aide Yuri Ushakov said.

He noted that there had been many signs of special attention from the Chinese delegation, but the most important ones came from Xi Jinping himself.

"There was special attention, special favor, and the opportunity to have a good, substantive, calm one-on-one conversation",

Ushakov said.

Vladimir Putin recently visited China, where he took part in the SCO summit as well as the Victory Parade in Beijing.
