新華社莫斯科3月20日電（記者郝薇薇 石昊）當(dāng)?shù)貢r(shí)間3月20日下午，剛剛抵達(dá)莫斯科的國家主席習(xí)近平應(yīng)約在克里姆林宮會(huì)見俄羅斯總統(tǒng)普京。

習(xí)近平抵達(dá)時(shí)，克里姆林宮司令在下車處迎接。普京總統(tǒng)同習(xí)近平熱情握手并合影。兩位元首就中俄關(guān)系及共同關(guān)心的問題進(jìn)行了深入、坦誠的交流。

習(xí)近平指出，很高興應(yīng)普京總統(tǒng)邀請，再次對俄羅斯進(jìn)行國事訪問。十年前我就任國家主席后首次出訪就選擇了俄羅斯，至今記憶猶新。十年來，我同普京總統(tǒng)保持了密切聯(lián)系。無論是我在中共二十大上連任中共中央總書記，還是前不久再次當(dāng)選中國國家主席，你都第一時(shí)間給我發(fā)來賀電，我深表感謝。俄羅斯明年將舉行總統(tǒng)選舉。在你堅(jiān)強(qiáng)領(lǐng)導(dǎo)下，俄羅斯發(fā)展振興取得長足進(jìn)展。我堅(jiān)信，俄羅斯人民一定會(huì)繼續(xù)給予你堅(jiān)定支持。

習(xí)近平強(qiáng)調(diào)，中俄關(guān)系發(fā)展到今天，有其深刻的歷史邏輯。作為最大鄰國和全面戰(zhàn)略協(xié)作伙伴，中俄關(guān)系在各自外交全局和對外政策中都占據(jù)優(yōu)先地位。中國歷來奉行獨(dú)立自主的外交政策。把中俄關(guān)系鞏固好、發(fā)展好，是中方基于自身根本利益和世界發(fā)展大勢作出的戰(zhàn)略抉擇。中方同俄方加強(qiáng)戰(zhàn)略協(xié)作的大方向堅(jiān)定不移。中俄都致力于實(shí)現(xiàn)國家發(fā)展振興，都支持世界多極化，都推動(dòng)國際關(guān)系民主化。雙方要進(jìn)一步深化各領(lǐng)域務(wù)實(shí)合作，加強(qiáng)在聯(lián)合國等多邊平臺的協(xié)調(diào)配合，助力各自國家發(fā)展振興，做世界和平穩(wěn)定的中流砥柱。

普京熱烈歡迎習(xí)近平對俄羅斯進(jìn)行國事訪問，對習(xí)近平連任中國國家主席再次表示熱烈祝賀。普京表示，過去十年來，中國各方面發(fā)展都取得令世人矚目的偉大成就，這歸功于習(xí)近平主席的卓越領(lǐng)導(dǎo)，也證明了中國國家制度和治理體系的優(yōu)越。我堅(jiān)信，在習(xí)近平主席堅(jiān)強(qiáng)領(lǐng)導(dǎo)下，中國必將繼續(xù)發(fā)展繁榮，順利實(shí)現(xiàn)各項(xiàng)既定宏偉目標(biāo)。在雙方共同努力下，近年來俄中關(guān)系在各領(lǐng)域都取得了豐碩成果。俄方愿同中方繼續(xù)深化雙邊務(wù)實(shí)合作，加強(qiáng)在國際事務(wù)中的溝通協(xié)作，推動(dòng)世界多極化和國際關(guān)系民主化進(jìn)程。

雙方就烏克蘭問題深入交換意見。習(xí)近平強(qiáng)調(diào)，在烏克蘭問題上，和平、理性的聲音在不斷積聚，大多數(shù)國家都支持緩和緊張局勢，主張勸和促談，反對火上澆油。歷史上看，沖突最后都需要通過對話和談判解決。不久前，中方專門發(fā)表了立場文件，呼吁政治解決烏克蘭危機(jī)，反對冷戰(zhàn)思維，反對單邊制裁。我們認(rèn)為，越是困難重重，越要為和平留下空間；越是矛盾尖銳，越不能放棄對話努力。中方愿繼續(xù)為推動(dòng)政治解決烏克蘭問題發(fā)揮建設(shè)性作用。

普京表示，俄方贊賞中方在重大國際問題上一貫秉持公正、客觀、平衡立場，主持公平正義。俄方認(rèn)真研究了中方關(guān)于政治解決烏克蘭問題的立場文件，對和談持開放態(tài)度，歡迎中方為此發(fā)揮建設(shè)性作用。

兩國元首表示，期待明天再次會(huì)談，規(guī)劃未來一個(gè)時(shí)期中俄全面戰(zhàn)略協(xié)作伙伴關(guān)系新藍(lán)圖。

Xi meets Putin in Moscow

Chinese President Xi Jinping met with his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, at the Kremlin on his arrival in Moscow on Monday.

When Xi reached the Kremlin, he was greeted by the Kremlin Commandant at the alighting point. Putin warmly shook hands and took photos with Xi. The two presidents had an in-depth and candid exchange on China-Russia relations and issues of mutual interest.

Xi noted that he was pleased to pay another state visit to Russia at the invitation of Putin, adding that Russia was the first country he visited after he was elected president 10 years ago and memories from that visit remain fresh today.

Xi said that over the past 10 years, he and Putin have stayed in close touch, and expressed his appreciation to Putin for immediately sending him congratulatory messages on his reelection as general secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC) by the 20th CPC National Congress and on his reelection not long ago as Chinese president.

He noted that Russia will hold the presidential election next year, and under Putin's strong leadership, Russia has made good progress in development and rejuvenation. Xi said he is confident that the Russian people will continue to give firm support to Putin.

Xi stressed that there is a profound historical logic for China-Russia relationship to reach where it is today. China and Russia are each other's biggest neighbor and comprehensive strategic partner of coordination. Both countries see their relationship as a high priority in their overall diplomacy and policy on external affairs.

China always upholds an independent foreign policy. To consolidate and develop well China-Russia relations is a strategic choice China has made on the basis of its own fundamental interests and the prevailing trends of the world, said Xi.

China is firm in keeping to the general direction of strengthening strategic coordination with Russia, Xi said, adding that both China and Russia are committed to realizing national development and rejuvenation, support world multi-polarity and work for greater democracy in international relations.

Xi said the two countries should further deepen practical cooperation in various fields and strengthen coordination and collaboration on multilateral platforms such as the UN to boost their respective national development and rejuvenation, and be a bulwark for world peace and stability.

Putin extended a warm welcome to Xi for his state visit to Russia and once again warmly congratulated him on his reelection as Chinese president.

Putin said that in the past 10 years China has made impressive and great achievements in all areas of development. This is attributable to the outstanding leadership of Xi and proves the strength of China's national political system and governance system.

Putin said he is confident that under Xi's strong leadership, China will definitely continue to develop and prosper and successfully realize all the great goals that have been set.

With concerted efforts by both sides, Russia-China relations in recent years have delivered fruitful results in various areas, Putin said, adding that Russia stands ready to continue to deepen bilateral practical cooperation, step up communication and collaboration in international affairs, and promote world multi-polarity and greater democracy in international relations.

The two sides had an in-depth exchange of views on the Ukraine issue.

Xi stressed that, on the Ukraine issue, voices for peace and rationality are building. Most countries support easing tensions, stand for peace talks, and are against adding fuel to the fire. A review of history shows that conflicts in the end have to be settled through dialogue and negotiation.

China released a document on its position on the Ukraine crisis, advocating the political settlement of the crisis and rejecting the Cold War mentality and unilateral sanctions, said Xi.

China believes that the more difficulties there are, the greater the need to keep space for peace. The more acute the problem is, the more important it is not to give up efforts for dialogue. China will continue to play a constructive role in promoting the political settlement of the Ukraine issue, said Xi.

For his part, Putin said that Russia appreciates China for consistently upholding an impartial, objective, and balanced position and standing for fairness and justice on major international issues. Russia has carefully studied China's position paper on the political settlement of the Ukraine issue and is open to talks for peace. Russia welcomes China to play a constructive role in this regard.

The two presidents said that they look forward to formal talks on the next day to draw up a new blueprint for China-Russia comprehensive strategic partnership of coordination in the years to come.
