Russian President Vladimir Putin said Thursday that closed military-political alliances in the Asia-Pacific region were “harmful” and “counterproductive,” in remarks at a press conference with Chinese leader Xi Jinping.
“It is necessary to work towards building a reliable and appropriate security architecture in the Asia-Pacific region, in which there is no place for closed military-political alliances. We believe they are very harmful and the creation of such alliances is counterproductive,” Putin said in Beijing, where he is on a two-day state visit.
