China to Cooperate With Eu for a Political Settlement of “Crisis in Ukraine”

China remains a firm supporter of a peaceful resolution of the “crisis in Ukraine” and is ready to work with the European Union to find a political solution.

This was stated by Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning at a briefing, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

“China is not a party to the Ukraine crisis, but a firm supporter and active promoter of the peaceful resolution of the crisis. We are ready to communicate and exchange views with the EU side on the political settlement of the crisis,” China’s top diplomat said, commenting on the words of European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen that China should play a constructive role in establishing peace in Ukraine and influence Russia.

“We also hope the EU will show strategic autonomy and political wisdom and take firm steps toward achieving long-term peace and security in Europe,” added Mao Ning.

As Ukrinform previously reported, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said that China, as a permanent member of the UN Security Council, must defend the provisions and principles of the UN Charter and promote global stability and peace. Thus China’s attitude to Russia’s war against Ukraine will be a decisive factor in the further development of EU-China relations.
