Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Mao Ning presided over the regular press conference held today (March 19). A reporter asked: Russian President Putin and US President Trump had a phone call on March 18 to focus on issues such as the normalization of Russia-US relations and the Ukrainian crisis. What is China’s comment on this? How much role can it play in solving the Ukrainian crisis?
Mao Ning said that we have noticed the relevant reports. From the very beginning, China advocated resolving the crisis through dialogue and negotiation, and was happy to see all efforts to a ceasefire, believing that this is a necessary step toward achieving peace.
