Vladimir Putin has arrived at Harbin, China’s ‘Little Russia’.
He is visiting a China-Russia trade fair today to highlight the strong economic ties between the superpowers.
Asia Business Correspondent Peter Lewis told Heather du Plessis Allan “Putin wants ongoing support from China, and access to China’s financial system.”
Lewis said Putin needs to pay for things in other than USD, because Russia doesn’t have access to that system.
