China has issued a new statement on the war

It was made after talks between Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi and Brazilian President's Special Advisor Celso Amorim.

The Chinese diplomatic department reported that Wang Yi and Amorim "exchanged views" on Russia's war against Ukraine.

Against this background, Wang Yi began to argue that the "Six-Point Consensus", jointly proposed by China and Brazil, played a positive role in "cooling the crisis" (this is what China cynically calls Russia's war against Ukraine — ed.).

Moreover, it is emphasized that the "Friends of Peace" group that supported this initiative, including countries of the Global South, expressed objective and rational voices, making positive efforts to promote dialogue and negotiations.

"Russia and Ukraine have taken an important step forward by starting negotiations. The process of resolving the crisis has reached a critical moment," the Chinese Foreign Ministry said in a statement.

What is important to understand is that China has been helping Russia continue its war against Ukraine for many years, although it publicly denies this fact.
