China "took into account the invitation of" Switzerland on participation in a peace conference regarding the war in Ukraine
Igniozio Cassis, Foreign Minister Switzerland, stated that he made a corresponding request on Wednesday, February 7. This happened during a meeting with China's Foreign Minister Van I. Diplomat said that Van "took into account the invitation. " The answer should be received in a few days. "China has a very strong relationship with Russia, but is still ready to contribute to the end of this war," Cassis said at a briefing for the press in Beijing.
In recent years, as the agency informs, China has sought to create a reputation of the world peacekeeper, although this campaign has only made minor progress. His ceasefire plan in Ukraine has not found much support in Kiev, Washington or other western capitals since the announcement at the beginning of last year.
The Chinese authorities ignored the meeting of national security advisers in Malta in 2023, when officials from more than 55 countries discussed Ukraine's desire to strengthen the support of their so -called peace formula. She really sent a delegation to a meeting to Saudi Arabia in August to discuss hostilities. Beijing provides economic and diplomatic support for Russia after President Vladimir Putin ordered a large -scale invasion of Russian troops in February 2022.
Last year, China's import from Russia has grown the most in the history of dollar equivalent - this jump has taken place because many Western companies avoided cases with Russia and their governments have applied a sanction to Moscow for its attack. President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky, according to the report, said last month that his government was working with Switzerland on a peace conference. He then said that since China plays important in the world.
We will remind, on February 5 in China hinted that it opposed the confiscation of Russian reserves for Ukraine, and named the consequences for the event. The interpretation and changes in the laws and rules in the field of finance, according to the Global Times, which is often used to demonstrate the position of the Communist Party of China on international issues, can undermine the confidence of investment in government bonds, such as US government debt, which was considered a safe sphere.
