HEFEI, June 17 (Xinhua) -- A video forum was held Tuesday in Hefei, capital of east China's Anhui Province, with Chinese and Russian college students engaging in a panel discussion on COVID-19.

More than 40 professors and students from Anhui Medical University (AMU) and Immanuel Kant Baltic Federal University (IKBFU) exchanged their views for more than two hours on a wide range of topics, including the spread, prevention and treatment of COVID-19, as well as students' volunteer activities during the pandemic.

China has rich experience in COVID-19 treatment, prevention and control, which is of great use to Russia, said Evgeniy Lyubiviy, a professor at IKBFU.

"The online forum has brought us closer and built a new platform for both universities to communicate with each other," said Cao Yunxia, president of AMU.

Alexander Fedorov, rector of IKBFU, led a delegation on a visit to AMU last December and signed a cooperation agreement with the Chinese university. Enditem
