Director #WangYi's remarks on #UkraineCrisis at #MunichSecurityConference2023:
#China is not a party to the #UkraineCrisis, but we have not sat idly by or added fuel to the fire, and we firmly oppose any move to exploit the crisis.

the framework for a peace deal had been put on the table. But regrettably the peace talk stopped. Some people don't want fighting to stop. They don’t care about the life and death of #Ukrainians or the harm done to Europe, but have larger strategic calculations in mind.
Confrontation between major powers must be avoided.We hope European friends will give sober thought to these questions: what are needed to stop the war? What is needed for peace and stability to endure in Europe? What role does Europe play to realize its strategic autonomy?
China will publish a position doc on political settlement of #UkraineCrisis, which will reiterate:
1)sovereignty & territorial integrity of all countries should be respected,
2)purposes & principles of UN Charter should be upheld,
3)legitimate security concerns of all countries

On the #UkraineCrisis, #China’s position boils down to supporting talks for peace. We will stay firm on the side of peace and dialogue.
