Beijing: Beijing is ready to maintain close contact with Moscow on resolving the Ukrainian conflict, Li Zhanshu, Chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress of China, said on Friday.
“We have seen that progress had been made in the negotiations between Russia and Ukraine, but disagreements have yet to be completely resolved… We are ready to remain in close contact on the issue with our Russian colleagues,” Li told a virtual meeting with Russian Upper House Speaker Valentina Matvienko.
He added that it is important to adhere to the fundamental principles and norms of the UN Charter to resolve the crisis in Ukraine.
