Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba is making the first visit by a Ukrainian official to China since the beginning of Russia’s full-scale aggression against Ukraine.
“Hello to all from China. Following up on the contacts between the leaders of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky and China’s Xi Jinping, I am carrying out the first visit of a Ukrainian official to China since the beginning of Russia’s full-scale aggression against Ukraine. This is also the first bilateral visit of the Ukrainian foreign minister to China since 2012,” he said on his Instagram.
He informed that ahead – detailed, substantive talks with his Chinese counterpart Wang Yi on ways to a just peace.
“Must avoid competition of peace plans. It is very important that Kiev and Beijing have a direct dialog and exchange of positions. We will also discuss bilateral relations. I am convinced: after Ukraine started negotiations on accession to the European Union, China should look at relations with our state through the prism of its strategic relations with Europe,” – said Kuleba.
As reported, July 23-25, Kuleba will pay a visit to China at the invitation of Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi.
