Chinese President Xi Jinping plans to meet next week with his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin in what is seen as further development of ties between the two economic and military powers.

According to US press report,the summit of the two leaders will be held on Tuesday and Wednesday during Xi’s visit to Russia’s far-eastern port city of Vladivostok, according to a Chinese foreign ministry statement on Friday. The meeting will mark the first time a Chinese head of state takes part in the Russian-hosted Eastern Economic Forum, a gathering Moscow regards as an opportunity to promote further investment in its sparsely populated far-east region.

The visit is also viewed as a sign of growing ties between Beijing and Moscow following their participation in joint military drills as well as cooperation in foreign policy matters such as the Syrian crisis and North Korea.
