The Financial Times article emphasized that, according to people close to the talks, Xi Jinping was to raise the topic of Ukraine during extensive negotiations with Trump. During these talks, the three leaders also proposed cooperation in response to the actions of the International Criminal Court.
China's position on the reports
At Tuesday's press conference, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Guo Jiakun firmly rejected the reports, calling them “completely false.” The same position was repeated in the official statement published on the ministry's social media.
A spokesman for the Ministry of Diplomacy noted that the reports regarding Xi Jinping's talks with Donald Trump were presented in a manner inconsistent with the facts.
The authorities in Beijing have consistently maintained that their policy towards the war in Ukraine is based on dialogue and the search for peaceful solutions, and the statements by Chinese officials are aimed at countering disinformation and ensuring that the country's official position remains unchanged.
