Experts' take: Chinese-Russian media in digital age

Chinese and Russian TV networks have maintained close cooperation in various forms.

SPB TV started to broadcast the English and Chinese version program from CNC World by Xinhua News Agency in 2013 and exclusively broadcast a series of new media programs called Panda Channel in 2017.

However, the most valuable part of Sino-Russian relations is the friendship during this most difficult time. SPB TV had provided 100,000 masks to China.

There is a similar Russian proverb: a friend in need is a friend indeed. It could be used to describe the bilateral media cooperation between China and Russia.
