Mr Medvedev's visit is part of efforts to strengthen ties between Russia and China. The two sides have pledged to promote an "unlimited" partnership, announced in February 2022.

Mr. Medvedev's previous visit to China took place in December 2022. He held a series of meetings with Chinese officials to discuss bilateral and international issues.

Meetings between Russia and China, including between party officials, continue to take place in various forms.

In October, Russian Defense Minister Andrei Belousov also visited Beijing. Both sides said Mr. Belousov's meetings focused on military and defense talks aimed at deepening cooperation.

Mr Medvedev, the former Russian president, is now one of the prominent figures pursuing Moscow's hardline policy in defending Russia's military activities in Ukraine.
