During the meeting, both nations specifically criticized the US president's Golden Dome missile defense shield plans and Washington's "irresponsible" nuclear policy, stating these posed a threat to global strategic stability. Despite emphasizing the "unprecedented level" of their bilateral relations, the leaders failed to finalize a crucial deal for the Power of Siberia 2 natural gas pipeline, which is vital for Russia's economy. The proposed Power of Siberia 2 pipeline, intended to transport gas from Russia to China via Mongolia, has been under discussion for years, with key details like pricing remaining unresolved.
