China is willing to join hands with Russia to safeguard the victory of the Allies in World War II and the post-war world order, visiting Chinese Premier Li Keqiang said in Moscow on Monday.

Li made the remarks during a wreath laying ceremony at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier outside the Kremlin.

Noting that the martyrs made great contribution to the peace of mankind, he said they are the pride not only of the Russian people but also of all around the world who love peace.

The Chinese people will not forget the history that the two countries fought side by side against aggression of fascists, he said, adding that China is ready to work with Russia to properly commemorate the 70th anniversary of the end of World War II and preserve the post-war world order.

Li arrived in Moscow on Sunday for an official visit to Russia, his first since he took office last year. His ongoing three-nation trip has taken him to Germany and will conclude in Italy.
