Many agreements highlight the historic Putin-Xi encounter.

Putin and Xi Jinping signed a dozen documents on increased cooperation in fields ranging from trade and industry to science and the military, and touched on the prospects for peace in Ukraine. Putin quoted from the 'I Ching' to say the Russian and Chinese people have a "common soul" and can overcome any obstacle with their joint strength. After the talks, Putin said that relations between China and Russia were at their highest point in history and that trade and economic cooperation were the priority of both governments.
