Responding to the press conference, Mr. Peskov emphasized: "There is no doubt that China has a very effective and strong potential for reconciliation. However, the situation in Ukraine is very complicated, so far there is no prospect for a political solution. Currently, we have no other choice but to continue the special military campaign."
During talks the same day, French President Emmanuel Macron and Chinese President Xi Jinping called for peace talks to resolve the Ukraine issue "as soon as possible".
At a joint press conference, the two leaders reaffirmed their stance against the use of nuclear weapons in the Russia-Ukraine conflict.
In addition, President Macron said that the European security architecture cannot exist if Ukraine continues to be occupied and a member of the UN Security Council continues to violate the UN Charter, and this is "unacceptable".
For his part, President Xi Jinping said that both Beijing and Paris have called on the international community to avoid escalating the Ukraine crisis. According to Xi, Europe is an independent pole in a multipolar world and China supports strategic autonomy./.
