President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky spoke in Singapore with criticism of China because of his refusal to participate in the Peace Summit, which was to take place in Switzerland.
Zelensky accused China of acting as an instrument in the hands of Russian President Vladimir Putin.
“It is possible not to help Ukraine and the civilized world end the war. But it seems to me, to tear the world of peace, to do everything so that some leaders do not get there - it does not closely bring peace. And this is not only Russia's support, it is actually support for war, ”the President said.
Zelensky also said that Ukraine has information about Chinese assistance in Russia's military efforts.
“This is what we discussed with the Chinese leader by phone. He promised me that China would stand away, would not support Russia with weapons. Today, there is information that some ways are in Russian markets through China ... The elements of Russian weapons come from China, ”the President of Ukraine said.
In addition, despite repeated requests for high -level meetings with China representatives, there were no such meetings.
"Many times we wanted to meet with Chinese representatives," including Xi Jinping. "Unfortunately, Ukraine does not have any powerful ties with China because China does not want it," Zelensky Politico quotes.
In addition to China, Zelensky in Singapore also critically responded to Brazil, whose President Lula Da Silva refused to go to Switzerland.
He commented on a joint statement by China and Brazil that Russia should participate in the peace conference against Ukraine.
“For all respect, neither China, nor Brazil, nor anyone else is fully guided that Russia has brought Russia to Ukraine. No one has the right to tell us how this war should end, ”Zelensky said.
