Beijing-Moscow relations went through many ups and downs before beginning to dramatically improve in the early 1990s, proving that a resilient and robust Sino-Russian partnership is of vital interest to both sides.

On Oct 2, 1949, the day after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Soviet Union became the first country to establish diplomatic relations with China, ushering in years of friendly cooperation.

In the early 1950s, several bilateral treaties were signed, including the Sino-Soviet Treaty of Friendship, Alliance and Mutual Assistance, with the Soviet Union providing support for China in various fields, including helping construct more than 150 major projects during the First Five-Year Plan (1953-1957) period. The Soviet Union also provided military support for China after the latter joined the Korean War (1950-53) to safeguard its border. And China appreciated the contributions of the Soviet Union during its early stages of development.
