The power of unity

Alisa Topchiy, a student at Saint-Petersburg State University in Russia, said at the latest edition of Vision China: "I believe that the coronavirus is above politics. And cooperation will be the only way to destroy the virus."

The event, "Young Voices: Shared Future & Better Tomorrow", was broadcast online to a global audience on Thursday evening.

She said the good news for her is that China and Russia have not only offered each other, but also the world, a helping hand to cope with the pandemic. China had provided assistance to more than 120 countries amid the COVID-19 outbreak by the end of March.
