KHABAROVSK, September 6 (AVN) - Colonel-General Alexander Golbakh, head of the Russian Far Eastern border guard department delegation visiting China, started negotiations with the command of the Heilongjiang military district Wednesday, a source in the department told the Military News Agency.
The parties are discussing issues connected with further development of Russian-Chinese co-operation in the field of border protection, the source said. New bilateral agreements on demarcation entered into force and several close-to-border islands are jointly used by the two states for economic purposes beginning this year. This calls on the border guards to clear up some provisions of the boundary regime.
The Russian delegation will end its visit to the Heilongjiang military district on Friday.
