    tl;dr:

    Russia has set up the first-ever program outside China to study the ideology of Chinese President Xi Jinping, the autocratic leader in Beijing who keeps a fierce grip on civil society and recently moved to become ruler for life. The Xi Jinping Thought Research Laboratory has been established at a major China studies institute in Moscow, with the goal of researching Xi’s ideas on economics, foreign and domestic policy, social policy, culture, art and ideology, according to the institute’s website. China and Xi remain among the Kremlin’s top global allies, even after Vladimir Putin’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine began in February last year. In 2025, the center will publish a series of scientific studies to acquaint Russian readers, including the authorities, with Xi’s ideas, and their significance for the development of China and Russia-China relations.
