Moscow, January 22 (Xinhua) — Information and cultural cooperation are among the key elements of Russian-Chinese cooperation, Alexander Zharov, CEO of the Russian company Gazprom-Media Holding, stated at a press breakfast on Thursday.
"Information and cultural cooperation, I believe, are among the key elements of Russian-Chinese relations. We certainly must address the information agenda. We must combat disinformation and distortion of information about our countries," A. Zharov said in response to a question from a Xinhua correspondent.
According to him, Russia and China bear responsibility for shaping the information agenda of the so-called Global South. "I think we're doing a pretty good job of it," the holding's head noted.
A. Zharov emphasized that Gazprom-Media Holding actively collaborates with Chinese media partners. "We have an agreement with China Media Group and an agreement with Xinhua. We've also signed agreements with a number of private Chinese companies," he said.
As A. Zharov reported, an agreement was signed yesterday with the International Alliance for the Development of Communication, which unites several dozen of the world's largest media outlets.
“We see great potential for cooperation with Chinese companies, because we are united by common values and a truly great friendship between our peoples,” he added. –0–
