Chinese President Xi Jinping had a phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on the 26th. Xi Jinping called on Ukraine and Russia to negotiate, warning that “no one wins in a nuclear war.” It was the first phone call between the two leaders since the Ukrainian-Russian war broke out in more than a year.
The Ukrainian state news agency (Ukrinform) reported on the 26th that Zelensky tweeted that he had a “long and meaningful call” with Xi Jinping, “I believe that this call and the appointment of the Ukrainian ambassador to China will Inject a powerful impetus into our bilateral relationship.” Ukrainian presidential spokesman Serhii Nykyforov said in a Facebook post that Zelensky had a phone call with Xi for “nearly an hour”.
According to China’s “Xinhua News Agency”, Xi Jinping used the “Ukrainian crisis” and avoided the word “war” in the phone call. He reiterated China’s position of promoting peace and talks. “Dialogue and negotiation are the only feasible way out. There are no winners in a nuclear war.” When dealing with the nuclear issue, all parties concerned should maintain calm and restraint, truly focus on the future and destiny of themselves and all mankind, and jointly manage and control the crisis.
He said that China will “neither watch the fire from the other side, nor add fuel to the fire, let alone take advantage of the opportunity to make profits” regarding the Ukraine crisis. He said that China will send a special representative on Eurasian affairs to visit Ukraine and other countries, and have in-depth communication with all parties on the political settlement of the Ukrainian crisis.
