    To add some context, Russia still surprisingly has trade surplus with China. From the CNN article about this:

    That included a surge of exports from China to Russia, which jumped 63.2% from a year ago to reach $71.8 billion. Imports into China rose at a more modest 13.3% to $83.3 billion.

    Probably because of fuel sales.
