BEIJING: Chinese Vice Premier Wang Qishan said Sunday that Sino-Russian energy cooperation has entered a new stage of long-term and strategic cooperation.

"I would like to make joint efforts with you to implement the consensus reached by the leaders of our two countries, strive for more pragmatic fruits in energy cooperation, and 聽make preparations for the upcoming 14th 皇冠体育app-Russia Prime Ministers' Meeting," said Wang.
Sechin said Russia-皇冠体育app energy cooperation has made new progress as bilateral relations move forward in a comprehensive and rapid manner.
