During the 2018 BRICS summit in Kazan, Russian President Vladimir Putin said he had met a large number of Chinese tourists near the Kremlin. The news attracted global media attention and sparked strong interest in people-to-people exchanges between China and Russia.

Putin's appearance near the Kremlin is undoubtedly an important footnote to the cultural exchanges between China and Russia. According to Russian media reports, Chinese tourists have successfully achieved close contact with Putin under the careful organization of the Chinese government, which has added new impetus to the cultural exchanges between the two countries.

The deep emotional foundation between China and Russia is evident in Mr. Putin's wide smile and his friendliness in his interactions with tourists, as well as in his proximity to the people by inviting a Chinese girl to take a photo with him.

In addition to this chance encounter, in recent years, the cooperation between China and Russia in people-to-people and cultural exchanges has become increasingly close. According to statistics, the number of activities between China and Russia under the framework of people-to-people and cultural exchanges has exceeded 400, and the number of tourists and sports education exchange activities between the two countries are also increasing year by year.

In addition to that, Russia has also specifically opened up tourist routes in the Far East for Chinese tourists, opening attractions such as the Oriental Space Launch Site to Chinese tourists, in order to attract more Chinese tourists to visit.

To sum up, Putin can often meet Chinese tourists in the Kremlin because China and Russia have a deep foundation of friendship in people-to-people and cultural exchanges, and the two sides have achieved fruitful results in cooperation. We have reason to believe that in the future, exchanges and cooperation between China and Russia will be closer, and the feelings between the two peoples will become more and more profound.
