Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko is visiting Beijing for a three-day state visit to upgrade their countries' ties to an "all-weather comprehensive strategic partnership". This visit has raised concerns from US officials that Beijing may be considering aiding Moscow in its ongoing assault on Ukraine. During the visit, the two leaders will exchange views on bilateral ties and international and regional issues of common concern, and sign a number of cooperation documents. The visit is expected to further strengthen the two countries' ties and could lead to increased economic cooperation.
