It was reported that during high-level talks in Moscow on May 8, Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping discussed the "Ukrainian crisis." This was reported in an official statement by the Chinese Foreign Ministry on the morning of May 9.
Xi Jinping's "security for all" formula
During the talks, the Chinese leader specifically touched on the war in Ukraine and put forward a "general, comprehensive, joint and sustainable global security concept." He stressed that in resolving any crisis, it is necessary to take into account the legitimate security interests of all states and eliminate the root causes of the problem.
Xi Jinping said that the Chinese side supports peace initiatives and hopes to reach a mutually acceptable and sustainable agreement between Moscow and Kiev.
Putin's statement that we are "ready for negotiations"
According to the information released by the Chinese Foreign Ministry, Russian President Putin also stated during the talks that Russia is ready to start peace talks without any conditions. He also stressed the importance of reaching a **"just and sustainable peace agreement."
Kremlin silent - no mention of war in the talks
It is noteworthy that the Kremlin did not provide any information about the Ukraine issue or peace talks in its official statement on the results of the talks. This further highlighted the gap between the openness of Russian-Chinese relations and bilateral statements.
China is not neutral, but a cautious mediator
While maintaining its traditional diplomatic style, China continues to express an open peace position on the issue of war. Xi Jinping's statement shows that Beijing not only considers security as a universal human concept, but also does not see peace as a source of geopolitical gain.
The Kremlin's silence, on the contrary, shows that Russia still does not retreat from its military position and does not openly discuss the issue of war even with its negotiating "friends".
