Zelensky Invites China To Discuss Peace After ‘No Breakthrough’ In Xi-Putin Meeting | ZeroHedge
But Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky said Tuesday his government has reached out to Beijing. Zelensky said he has invited China to engage in talks on implementation of Kyiv’s own peace formula, and that he’s waiting for an answer.
“We offered China to become a partner in the implementation of the peace formula. We passed over our formula across all channels. We invite you to dialogue. We are waiting for your answer,” Zelensky announced at a Tuesday a press conference. He added: “We are receiving some signals, but there are no specifics yet”.
This comes after last month Zelensky issued an unexpectedly positive response to Xi’s offering China’s 12-point peace plan, in an effort to jumpstart negotiations. “I think the fact that China started talking about Ukraine is not bad. But the question is what follows the words,” Zelensky said at the time. “I think some of the Chinese proposals respect international law, and I think we can work on it with China. Why not? Our goal is to gather many around us to isolate one [Russia],” he had added.
