The Xinhua agency reported this on April 16 It is noted that during the meeting the parties exchanged views on the conflict in Ukraine. “First, we must prioritize maintaining peace and stability and refrain from seeking selfish gain. Secondly, we must cool the situation and not add fuel to the fire,” Xi Jinping said.

He stressed that Beijing encourages and supports all efforts that contribute to the peaceful resolution of the Ukrainian conflict.
