Russian President Vladimir Putin will visit China next week, the Kremlin announced.

The visit will take place on May 19-20, barely a week after US President Donald Trump visited Chinese President Xi Jinping.

The two leaders will discuss how the "comprehensive partnership and strategic cooperation" between Moscow and Beijing can be further strengthened, the Kremlin statement said.
