MOSCOW, March 13. /TASS/. Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov did not unveil whether Chinese President Xi Jinping might actually visit Russia next week.

"Right now I have nothing to say on the subject. As a rule, announcements of official foreign visits are made synchronously, by mutual agreement. When there is such readiness, we will let you know," the Kremlin spokesman said, answering a corresponding question.

Reuters reported earlier on Monday, citing sources, that Xi Jinping intended to pay a visit to Moscow as early as the following week. According to the news agency, the Chinese leader expects to meet with his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin.
