NOVATEK says Russia may agree to sell liquefied natural gas to China from Yamal

MOSCOW, April 24. /ITAR-TASS/. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov noted “an unprecedentedly high level of Russian-Chinese relations which turn in an increasingly significant factor in world politics.” The minister has made a statement at an opening ceremony of the global university forum in the Russian capital on Thursday. “Joint work to step up international stability, create conditions for broad international co-operation, take joint actions to settle global regional problems is a basis of foreign political philosophy of our country,” the Russian foreign minister noted.
“A good example of mutually beneficial partnership is unprecedentedly high level of Russian-Chinese relations which turn in an increasingly significant factor in world politics,” Lavrov said, adding that “There are also relations within the troika (three) of Russia, India and China and between the BRICS states (the developing-nation assembly of Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa) which develop actively their ties with regional structures in Latin America and on other continents.
