Xi's visit to Moscow will reportedly take place from Monday to Wednesday.

As the war rages in Europe, the visit will certainly be seen as a strong demonstration of Beijing's support for the Kremlin.

At their last virtual meeting, Putin described the relationship between the two countries as the “best in history”.
