MOSCOW -- The upcoming summit between Chinese President Xi Jinping and his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, will give a fresh boost to bilateral ties, says China's ambassador to Russia.

More detailed schedules and guiding principles for further cooperation will be drafted by the two leaders during their first meeting in 2015, which will also lead to other high-level meetings, Li Hui said in a recent exclusive interview with Xinhua.

From the ceremonies to mark the 70th anniversary of the victory against fascists in WWII, to the regular summits under such frameworks as the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO), BRICS and G20, Xi and Putin will maintain close contact on different regional and international occasions.

Meanwhile, fruitful exchanges are also expected from China-Russia Prime Ministers' Regular Meetings and discussions of subcommittees for energy, social and investment cooperation.

Li added that a meeting of the legislative cooperation committee will also be held in 2015, while many Chinese governmental delegations will participate in meetings held within the frameworks of the SCO and BRICS.

All these high-level exchanges give body to the high level of the China-Russia relationship, Li said, adding that both countries treasure and pursue win-win cooperation and common development on the basis of mutual respect and mutual support.
