Abstract

The decade of Hu Jintao's presidency (2003-2013) marks a significant period of deepening economic cooperation between China and Russia. This paper examines the evolution of bilateral economic relations, emphasizing the intensification of cooperation in the petrochemical and metallurgical industries, the surge in natural gas and coal trade, the substantial growth of Russian timber exports to the Chinese market, and the expansion of bilateral cooperation in the nuclear industry. This study draws on various scholarly books and articles to comprehensively analyze the Sino-Russian economic partnership during this period.
