China and the Eurasian Economic Union (EEU) may begin negotiations on a cooperation agreement in the near future, the Ambassador of Russia to China, Andrei Denisov, said.
The leaders of Russia and China signed an agreement on the conjugation of the Eurasian Economic Union and the Silk Road Economic Belt in May 2015 during the visit of the Chinese President Xi Jinping to Moscow.
The diplomat stressed that cooperation in this area is built on two stages. "The first stage is the collective level - the interaction between the EEU and the Eurasian Economic Commission with China," RIA Novosti cited him as saying.
