Putin Quote: "Of course, we did not ignore the situation around Ukraine. We believe that many provisions of the peace plan proposed by China are in tune with Russian approaches and can be taken as a basis for a peaceful settlement when they are ready for it in the West and in Kyiv. However, so far, we have not observed such readiness on their part."
Details: For his part, the Chinese leader noted that Beijing supports peace and dialogue in the full-scale war in Ukraine.
