Mao Ning said that on May 15-26, 2023, the Chinese government's special representative for Eurasia, Li Hui, visited the Ukraine, Poland, France, Germany, EU headquarters and Russia to have extensive contacts and exchange information with various parties on the political settlement in Ukraine.

It was about the need to "clearly express China's position and proposals, listen to the views and advice of different parties and build common international understanding."

"All sides attach great importance to the visit of Special Representative Li Hui, fully recognize China's positive role in advancing peace talks, welcome China's call for respect for sovereignty and territorial integrity and adherence to the purposes and principles of the UN Charter, and express hope that China will continue to exercise its constructive influence," the statement said.

According to China, now Ukrainian "crisis" is still at a critical stage.

"In the future, China will continue to act on President Xi's call for joint efforts in four areas, four principles and three observations, strengthen dialogue and communication with all parties, continue to build common understanding and mutual trust, encourage the international community to seek the broadest common understanding, and contribute to China's contribution to a political solution to the crisis in Ukraine," the statement said.

Media officials clarified to the spokeswoman that Western officials familiar with Special Envoy Li Hui's recent trip to Europe say China is proposing a ceasefire that will leave Russia in possession of parts of Ukraine, according to a report by The Wall Street Journal.

In response, the official said to address the media.

Also, Ukraine's foreign minister publicly stated that he had been in contact with other parties, and neither country said that Special Representative Li Hui made the remarks reported by journalists.

Chinese President Xi Jinping told Russian Premier Mikhail Mishustin that China and Russia are ready to firmly support each other in "basic interests." The CCN believes that "Beijing is throwing Moscow an economic lifeline amid isolation and sanctions from the West."

We will remind, earlier it was reported that China's special envoy Li Hui during visits to European capitals for a peaceful settlement in Ukraine called for Russia to leave the occupied territories of Ukraine and immediately cease hostilities.
