China is not a party to the Ukraine crisis, but has consistently promoted talks for peace in its own way. China encourages and supports all efforts that are conducive to the peaceful resolution of the crisis, and supports the holding in due course of an international peace conference that is recognized by both Russia and Ukraine and ensures the equal participation of all parties and fair discussions on all peace plans. China will maintain close communication with all parties concerned, including Germany, on this matter

The two leaders reportedly held "an in-depth exchange of views on the Ukrainian crisis (as the war is called in Beijing - ed.), noting that both China and Germany stand committed to the purposes and principles of the U.N. Charter, oppose the use of nuclear weapons or attack on peaceful nuclear facilities, and call for efforts to properly address the issue of global food security and observe the international humanitarian law."
Xi emphasized that the current circumstances, all parties should commit to an early restoration of peace to prevent the conflict from escalating and even spiraling out of control."
"To this end, a number of principles should be followed: first, focusing on the overall interest of peace and stability rather than seeking selfish gains; second, cooling down the situation rather than adding fuel to the fire; third, accumulating conditions for restoring peace rather than further aggravating tensions; and fourth, reducing the negative impact on the world economy rather than undermining the stability of global industrial and supply chains," Xi said.
