Zelenskyy reacts to China’s latest push for peace

Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy has given his first reaction to China’s latest effort to end the war.

Speaking in Kyiv, Zelenskyy welcomed China’s involvement but added that much would depend on details and implementation.

“I don’t think that was China’s peace plan,” he said. “It was not a declaration or resolution. I think that China spoke its mind about the matter and I actually said it once before — China talking about Ukraine . . . is a good thing.”

“But it begs the question, what will these words be followed with?”

“There are some things that make sense to me and some that I disagree with, that the entire world disagrees with, I think,” he added.

“Our task is to get everyone together to isolate Russia.”
