“China has made a decision to extend the visa-free regime with Russia until the end of 2027”
DISPUTED
There is a direct contradiction between the provided web search results regarding the end date. One source explicitly states the visa-free policy for Russian citizens is extended to 'Dec. 31, 2027', while another source states the policy will run on a trial basis until '14 September 2026'.

“Russian citizens with ordinary passports are entitled to come to China for business trips, travel, visits to relatives and friends, an exchange or transit for a term of up to 30 days without a visa”
CORROBORATED
Multiple web search results confirm that the visa-free entry applies to Russian visitors traveling for business, tourism, family and friend visits, exchanges, or transit purposes. While the duration is mentioned as '30-day' in the context of the general 50-country extension, the specific categories of travel for Russians are explicitly corroborated across multiple search results.
