Russian President-elect Vladimir Putin on Monday returns to theKremlin, starting his third term as the country's top leader. Although some in the West may try to belittle Putin's success inthe March presidential election, the Russian leader's victorylargely reflects the will of a majority of the Russian people. Riding a wave of popularity for his no-nonsense incorruptibleimage, Putin took over the presidency in 2000 when the country wasstill in a critical transitional period. He was re-elected four years later thanks to a steady economicgrowth and the improvement of Russian's living standards that hehad achieved during his first term. Despite protests at the 2012 presidential election, most of theRussians have reached the consensus that "the country needs Putin." China, as a neighbor and comprehensive strategic partner of Russia,has enormous interest in seeing a stable, strong and prosperousRussia emerging under the fresh presidency of Putin. From a regional perspective, the two countries, both as members ofthe Shanghai Cooperation Organization, have joined hands inpromoting regional stability and integration. On the world stage, China and Russia have maintained effectivecoordination on international issues, ranging from efforts to endthe Syrian crisis to negotiations to break the Iranian nuclearimpasse. More importantly, China and Russia share the common goal of amulti-polar world where no single hegemony can dictate the wholeinternational community. They have also been pushing jointly for reforming the internationalmonetary system and improving global economic governance. Putin has shown the world that he values the strategic relationsbetween Russia and China and will carry on the Kremlin's existingChina policy to make sure the strategic cooperation and partnershipbetween the two sides will roll on. Nonetheless, Putin, who carries the hope of a nation eager forsocial reform, is facing a rough road ahead. There are tons of work for the new Russian government to do as thecountry tries to diversify its economy, spur innovation and stemthe vicious trend of low birth rates. But these are not challenges that cannot be surmounted. With astrong economy and a competitive technology sector, Russia issimply more likely to achieve its national development targetsunder Putin. Now, it is time for the Russian people to rally behind the newgovernment, and they have the best wishes from their Chinesefriends. Author Source xinhua Editor Yang Fan.
