MOSCOW (Sputnik) Secretary of Russia's Security Council Nikolai Patrushev and Chinese State Councilor Yang Jiechi held a meeting on Monday, during which they spoke out against unilateral sanctions and attempts to interfere in countries' internal affairs, the Security Council said.

"Interference in the internal affairs of countries and the imposition of own will is unacceptable. We express our opposition to attempts to shift power from the outside and the imposition of unilateral sanctions on the basis of national legislation of individual countries," the Russian Security Council said in a statement.

Patrushev also said that Russia and China, as the countries that suffered the biggest losses during the WWII, should stand up against any attempts to revive fascism or falsify the outcomes of the war.

"It is important that all the states give up on the outdated 'Cold War' way of thinking and form a new vision of long-term and indivisible security for all, based on cooperation," the statement said.

Russia stepped up cooperation with China, as well as the other BRICS countries and Latin American nations in 2014, when a number of Western states started imposing economic sanctions against Moscow over its alleged role in the escalation of the Ukrainian conflict.
