TUNISIA, September 4. /TASS/. Russian President Vladimir Putin’s recent visit to China reaffirmed the strength of the strategic alliance between Moscow and Beijing, highlighting their shared vision of building a multipolar world, one where America doesn’t wield disproportionate power globally, Egyptian expert and director of the Asia Center for Studies and Translation, Ahmed Moustafa, told TASS.
He characterized the military parade on Tiananmen Square in Beijing as more than a display of historical pride; it was a potent geopolitical signal.
"President Putin's extensive visit, culminating in his participation alongside Chinese President Xi Jinping in key events, underscored the deepening strategic partnership aimed at countering US influence," Moustafa explained. "Both leaders emphasized that their military and strategic cooperation serve as a deterrent to American ambitions in their respective regions. Beyond strengthening military ties, they are also challenging US economic dominance."
The expert pointed out that amid Europe's economic instability, Russia and China are advocating for the creation of a BRICS reserve currency and promoting trade in their own national currencies, reducing reliance on the US dollar. "This move is part of an effort to develop a new financial system capable of challenging American economic supremacy," Moustafa stated.
