Kyiv • UNN
Ukrainian President Zelenskyy emphasizes the importance of Chinese President Xi Jinping's support for Ukraine's sovereignty and international norms, such as nuclear safety and territorial integrity. Zelenskyy also wants China to support Ukraine's "Formula for Peace."
It is very important that Chinese President Xi Jinping supports Ukraine. This was stated by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in an interview with the Associated Press, according to a correspondent of UNN .
I think it is very important that President Xi Jinping supports Ukraine. Of course, he will be balancing because of his historical relations and economic relations and so on. But there are things that are unconditional, in such things there are no exceptions to a person or a state. There is only politics, and it is either fair or it is outside any law

The president listed unconditional things that he believes foreign leaders should support.
"There are unconditional things - nuclear safety, territorial integrity, state sovereignty, justice, challenges due to the deportation of children, food security. These are absolute things that I believe leaders should support. Even if they have enough and there is no shortage of grain, corn, sunflower, they realize that there are things that are red lines. Things that cannot be crossed. Therefore, from this side, I would like China to support the Peace Formula," Zelensky said.
Addendum
In April 2023, Zelenskyy held a phone conversation with Chinese leader Xi Jinping.
Chinese leader Xi has not visited Ukraine since the start of the full-scale invasion. European leaders urged Xi Jinping to at least speak on the phone with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, but the Chinese leader did not do so until April.
Ukraine has publicly invited China to join the Ukrainian "peace formula".
