China and Russia strengthened cooperation in satellite navigation by holding the first meeting of the China-Russia Cooperation Program Committee on Satellite Navigation on Tuesday.

The meeting reviewed the two countries' collaboration in this area so far, set up several working groups and made plans for the future.
