China has stated that it is willing to establish a closer partnership with Russia on energy issues to ensure global energy security.

President Xi Jinping made the announcement as the G7 group of nations prepares to impose new measures on Russia's oil exports.

"China is willing to work with Russia to establish a closer energy partnership, promote the development of clean and green energy, and jointly maintain international energy security and the stability of industry supply chains," said Xi .
