MOSCOW, Feb 01 (Reuters): Russian Security Council Secretary Sergei Shoigu told Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi that Moscow continues to support Beijing over Taiwan, state news agency TASS reported on Sunday.
China and Russia have forged close ties in recent years and declared a "no limits" strategic partnership days before Russian President Vladimir Putin sent tens of thousands of troops into Ukraine in February 2022.
China views democratically-governed Taiwan as its own territory and has not renounced using force to bring it under its control. Beijing has offered Taiwan a "one country, two systems" model, similar to Hong Kong, though no major political party in Taiwan supports this.
Russia has repeatedly said it opposes Taiwan's independence in any form and considers the island an inseparable part of China.
