China has displayed hesitance to engage in discussions about the Russia-Ukraine war, voicing reservations. The country has claimed to have a neutral stance.
China said Friday it would be '’hard to meet' calls for discussions on the Russia-Ukraine war, citing problems with arrangements that appear to point to Beijing's strongly pro-Moscow stance. Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning said that 'China’s hopes appear to be hard to meet at the meeting.
Mao gave no details, but said that China has 'informed parties concerned about our considerations and concerns.' and would keep in touch with all parties concerned. China claims to be neutral in the conflict, but has strongly backed Russia, most recently hosting President Vladimir Putin on a state visit.
Putin hailed Beijing’s peace plan for Ukraine that has been largely dismissed and makes no requirements for Moscow to return land it has seized, saying that 'we commend China’s approaches to resolving the crisis in Ukraine.' Switzerland had proposed the talks for the coming days in hopes of bringing an end to the war, which was sparked by Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine on Feb. 24, 2022, but they haven't been endorsed by either Moscow or Kyiv.
