Russian President Vladimir Putin plans to visit China in May. Putin announced his plans on April 25 at a congress of the Russian Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs in Moscow. He didn't say when his visit would take place and didn't offer any other details. Russia’s growing economic and diplomatic isolation because of its war against Ukraine has made it increasingly reliant on China, its former rival for leadership of the communist bloc during the Cold War.
