Russia and China jointly oppose "discriminatory" sanctions in global trade that hinder the world's socio-economic development, Russian President Vladimir Putin said in a written interview with China's official Xinhua news agency.
The two countries will continue to work to reduce mutual trade barriers, Putin said in the interview published on Saturday on the eve of a visit to Russia's biggest trading partner.
Putin will be in China from Sunday to Wednesday, in a four-day visit that the Kremlin has called "unprecedented."

Obviously Russia and China see the courts and NOT President Trump with the ultimate authority and last say on tariffs, immigration and foreign policy.
All three (Russia, China and US Courts) seem to be in agreement and the world sees this.
I wonder why this is only one way? They can tariff us but not vice-versa.
These judges are all security risks and should be thrown in GITMO. They are terrorists and enemy combatants by another name.
So, Trump’s policies are working. Good.
It is easy to lift all sanctions. Just get out of Ukraine.
The Russians are in the oblasts of the Russian Federation - Kherson, Zaporozhye, Donetsk, Luhansk, the Russian Republic of Crimea and the Russian federal city of Sevastopol.
Not in the Ukraine.
Keep telling yourself that as much as you like but it will not make it true.
“The Russians are in the oblasts of the Russian Federation.”
Funny. That’s not what the maps say.

I was intrigued a few nights ago that the Prez in a late night tweet addressed magnets using the phrasing They Must give us magnets.
Pretty much all the other tariff negotiation with China falls to insignificance besides the magnets. There was even some talk about “we have the airplane parts they must have” as some sort of magnet counter.
The media has not picked up on just how important the magnets are, limiting talk to some defense applications and some medical. And then I noticed a rush to the wiki’s to downplay the importance of those magnets to society.
And then there was the announcement of a US firm getting a DoD contract to produce the magnets in the US, which the Prez noted . . . beginning next year.
That doesn’t scale. They have the monopoly. It’s pretty important stuff. They probably would sacrifice the airplane parts to be able to squeeze on neodymium.
Oh, and these next 4 days is the SCO meeting.
It’s essentially huge. It’s 42% of the world’s population, and if you toss in Indonesia and a few others in Africa, they have the majority. But they present SCO as regional.
I have noticed not a word from the Prez about punishing China for buying Russian oil. India has decided to just accept the punishment. They have 7% GDP growth and losing 1% to tariffs doesn’t really persuade much.
It’s called MASOCHISM.
The patriotic Americans are in the counties of the state of Illinois, in the United States.
Not in the occupied city of Pricksterville.
Grab a rifle and make a difference!
It’s easy to Stupefy the social media crowd.
We had one of the globalist trolls on here yesterday trying to neutralize the young queen of Scotland business. It was pathetic.
Seriously, the admins here need to do something about the Russian infection in here. The place is turning into a dump thanks to the Frussians in here.
The propaganda from the zeepopaths is nauseating, and is getting unwilling Ukrainians killed.
He’s only taking Sudentland, he’ll never go for Prague.
Yet you people cheer on Russia endlessly with NO criticism. It's this every reason that I think this forum is infected with Russian bots.
Any student of history shows Russia is nobody's friend and certainly not the USA under the current regime. Gorby or even Yeltsin weren't even close to being in the same league as Putin, yet you have no problem with this.
I want this war to end and Trump is trying, but your god, Putin, doesn't really give a shit.
For the record, I want nothing to do with sending more money to Ukraine. But then again, if your god continues the war (that he started) then at some point the gloves have to come off. Your cherished Russia is in league with China, the Mooslimes, N. Korea.... I could go on and on. But it won't change anyone's minds.
Therefore, I think members here that joined after the Russia/Uke war started and are the biggest cheerleaders for Russia should be shown the door at this place. Basically, I think y'all are nothing but Russians posing as Americans. No decent American or even a conservative American would be siding with Russia here.
Not to mention, you troll farm types have ruined this place. Until the bosses decide to fix it in here, it's going to continue to swirl the bowl.
I’m one of the oldest of the freepers.
