In a comment to the Russian state agency, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi called the move important for global stability and the balance of power.
Wang Yi is holding talks on strategic cooperation between Beijing and the Kremlin. Amid tensions surrounding a partial ceasefire in Ukraine and critical statements by US President Donald Trump regarding the leaders of Russia and Ukraine, China is calling for the intensification of peaceful dialogue.
Even a little progress towards peace is constructive and worth developing.
He also stressed that resolving the conflict requires consistent efforts and willingness of the parties to compromise.
Chinese President Xi Jinping and Putin have met repeatedly in recent years to discuss common interests, including the situation around Taiwan, Ukraine and relations with the United States.
Beijing has repeatedly tried to mediate the peace process, offering its own initiatives independently and jointly with other countries, such as Brazil. However, his efforts have not yet led to significant results.
China is ready to work with the international community, including the countries of the Global South, to play a constructive role in resolving the conflict.
According to the Chinese diplomat, the responsibility for maintaining peace lies with the major powers that have an impact on world politics. As permanent members of the UN Security Council, China and Russia, he said, have a special mission to maintain stability and development in the international arena.
