China Offers to Mediate in Ukraine Conflict Amid Criticism

China Offers to Mediate in Ukraine Conflict Amid Criticism

U.S. and European officials express skepticism towards China’s proposal for peace talks between Russia and Ukraine.
According to reports from The Wall Street Journal, Chinese officials have proposed assistance in mediating peace negotiations concerning Ukraine.

Citing sources in Beijing and Washington, the report states that these overtures were communicated to former President Donald Trump's team through intermediaries.

Notably, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was not included in the discussions between Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin.

The White House has not confirmed whether it has received such a proposal from China but has rejected it as 'completely untenable.' The proposal reportedly emphasizes China's role as a 'guarantor' by suggesting the deployment of peacekeeping forces to the region.

Responses to China's proposal within the U.S. and Europe have been marked by skepticism, partly due to concerns over the strengthening ties between Beijing and Moscow.

The Wall Street Journal indicated that the Chinese proposal does not require China to curtail its alleged economic support for Russia.

Trump has indicated that he expects to meet Putin in Saudi Arabia for peace negotiations regarding Ukraine, following a phone conversation between the two leaders, reported by CBS.

Describing the dialogue as 'long and very productive,' Trump mentioned this as the first confirmed contact between them since his return to the White House.

He highlighted the likelihood of his first in-person meeting with Putin taking place in Saudi Arabia in the near future, stating that Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman would also play a role in the discussions.

Regarding the Ukraine conflict, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning remarked earlier that China has not supplied weapons to either party involved in the conflict.

In response to accusations from Western nations, she reiterated that China adopts a fair and objective stance on the situation in Ukraine, complying with laws and regulations regarding the responsible export of arms and dual-use goods.
