Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine
Dmytro Kuleba
said that Kyiv and Beijing have "constructive" relations.
He said this at a press conference following the meeting of the Ukraine-NATO commission in Brussels, Suspilne writes.
"We have a solid constructive approach," commented the head of the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry on relations with the People's Republic of China.
According to the minister, he very actively talked with European partners for an hour about how Ukraine cooperates with the EU in terms of distancing China from deepening its partnership with the aggressor country Russia.
"I started my visit in Brussels with a meeting with Josep Borrell, who came to meet with me from a meeting with the President of the European Commission, where they discussed her visit to China. Then Josep and I discussed his visit to China, and today President Zelensky spoke with von der Leyen, including about her visit to China," Kuleba said.
