China's Xi Jinping has appealed for Russia and Ukraine to restart peace talks in a phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy - warning"there is no winner in a nuclear war", according to state media.
Following a long-anticipated conversation between the two leaders, the Chinese government pledged to send a"special representative" to Kyiv for talks about a possible"political settlement".China has tried to appear neutral about the conflict, but has refused to condemn Moscow's invasion of Ukraine. Before the February 2022 invasion, the Chinese president and Russian President Vladimir Putin issued a joint statement saying their governments had a"no limits friendship".
But earlier this year, the Chinese government released a peace proposal and called for a ceasefire and talks.
