Russian President Vladimir Putin arrived in Beijing on Tuesday night for a state visit to China.

At the invitation of Chinese President Xi Jinping, Putin is visiting China from May 19 to 20. This is Putin's 25th visit to China. The two presidents will exchange views on bilateral relations, cooperation in various fields, and international and regional issues of mutual interest, according to the Chinese Foreign Ministry.
