(AP)-A Russian official says Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping plan to meet next week in Uzbekistan. The meeting could signal another step in warming ties between two powers that are increasingly facing off against the West. The meeting at the Shanghai Cooperation Organization comes at delicate times for both leaders. Putin is dealing with the economic and political fallout of his war in Ukraine that has left Russia more isolated. Xi is also facing a slowing economy as he seeks a third five-year term as Communist Party leader. While he’s expected to secure it, that would represent a break with precedent. Both have seen their countries’ relations with the West deteriorate.
