Vladimir Putin hosts birthday party for Xi Jinping

Russian president helps Chinese counterpart celebrate 66th birthday in style on Sunday, giving him Russian ice cream and sharing champagne before a summit in Tajikistan.

The two leaders reportedly consider each other to be close friends. Discussion of senior leaders' private lives is extremely rare in China and their exact birth dates are considered a state secret.

This is more than 'best friends', this is bromance

This is not best friend *THIS IS POWERFUL FAMILY*

I have to point out the amazing attention to detail here. It was Xi Jinping’s 66th birthday so on the cake the saying “六六大顺” was written, which kinda roughly means “[I hope] everything goes smoothly” but incorporates the character for six, 六，in place of the original character used in the actual saying (also pronounced liu). Respect to the people who prepared this.

Russia and china need each other. Hope everything will go well btw the two country. First step, both side needs to learn and understand each other’s history and culture to avoid any miss communication.
