Ukraine has invited Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi for a visit. Beijing expressed interest in the proposal, according to a Chinese foreign ministry official.
Reuters reported that Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba met his Chinese counterpart in Beijing last week. This marked Kuleba's first visit to China since the outbreak of the war with Russia. The two ministers engaged in a three-hour conversation.
During a briefing in Kyiv, a Ukrainian Foreign Ministry representative said “we are ready to receive Wang Yi in Ukraine, so that he can see firsthand the consequences of Russia's aggression against our country, and we can also conduct deeper negotiations with him on bilateral, regional, and international topics."
China has maintained a neutral stance on the Russia-Ukraine war.
However, shortly after the war broke out in 2022, Beijing declared an "unrestricted" partnership with Russia and hosted Russian President Vladimir Putin for talks in Beijing in May.
