“China and Russia together promote a multipolar world and do not recognize unipolar hegemony, together stubbornly uphold the system of international relations, the core of which is the UN, and the world order based on international law, and also do not recognize the policy of brute force,” the Chinese Foreign Ministry quoted him as saying.

Wang Yi emphasized that this position is on the right side of history and "corresponds to the development trends of the present."

Earlier, Russian President Vladimir Putin said that multipolarity in the world is inevitable.
