The Government of China will send an envoy next week for a tour of several European countries that will include stops in Ukraine and Russia, as part of the efforts of the Asian giant to intercede in a conflict for which it has even presented its own plan of peace.
The Chinese representative for Eurasian issues within the Foreign Ministry, Li Hui, will specifically visit Ukraine, Poland, France, Germany and Russia, on a tour that will begin on Monday, as reported by the diplomatic spokesman, Wang Wenbin, at a press conference. .
China presented its peace plan for Ukraine in March, days after a visit to Moscow by Chinese President Xi Jinping. In April, Xi spoke by phone for the first time since the start of the invasion with his Ukrainian counterpart, Volodymyr Zelensky.
In this call, Xi already announced that he would send a government representative to engage in person talks with all parties and try to reach a “political solution” to the crisis.
