Wide of group STORYLINE: Russia's President Vladimir Putin and China's President Jiang Zemin sat down for talks on Monday that aimed to mould their partnership into a paramount friendship treaty. The treaty is the first such document since 1950, when Joseph Stalin and Mao Tse-tung created a Soviet-Chinese alliance that later soured into bitter rivalry by the 1960's. Since the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991 Moscow and Beijing have put their disputes behind them and forged what they call a strategic partnership. China is the biggest customer for Russia's struggling defence factories. The factories are rich in expertise and advanced weapon designs but short on orders from Russia's own impoverished military. Together, the two countries oppose U-S plans for a national missile defense and alleged U-S attempts to dominate world affairs. Jiang arrived on Sunday for a four-day visit on the heels of the International Olympic Committee decision at its Moscow meeting to award the 2008 Olympics to Beijing. He met with outgoing IOC President Juan Antonio Samaranch. Jiang's visit also follows the successful test on Saturday of a missile interceptor by the United States, which is being seen as a step forward in its quest to build a national missile defense system. Both Russia and China warn that the proposed American missile shield would upset the strategic balance and trigger a new global arms race. China's concerns are potentially even stronger, because its nuclear arsenal is tiny compared to Russia's and even a limited missile defence could erode its deterrent value.
