China and Brazil consistently support the idea of a ceasefire. Their influence on the Russian dictator Vladimir Putin should be used to achieve this goal, Foreign Ministry spokesman Georgiy Tikhiy said during a briefing, writes UNN.
Details
China and Brazil consistently support the idea of a ceasefire. They made statements about this several years ago, and therefore we would like to see more of their support, because they have influence on Russia.
Tikhiy also added that China and Brazil have influence on Putin, so this influence should be used to achieve a ceasefire.
We would like them to join in convincing the Russian leader that we need a complete ceasefire. Not just for show – for 30, 60, 90 days. We are ready for all of this, so we need them to use their strong voice. We need to start somewhere.
