Ukrainian president unleashes on Beijing, saying it’s helping Moscow threaten countries with higher food and fuel prices to convince them not to attend June 15-16 meeting.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy hit out at China, accusing the country of helping Russia derail a peace summit this month in Switzerland.
“Russia, using Chinese influence on the region, using Chinese diplomats also, does everything to disrupt the peace summit,” Zelenskyy said Sunday during a press conference after delivering an address at the Shangri-La Dialogue in Singapore.
In a rare public rebuke of China — after years of careful attempts to court Beijing and peel it away from its “no limits” friendship with Russia — Zelenskyy’s frustration appeared to boil over in Singapore. He said Ukraine had evidence that China was assisting Moscow’s war efforts, despite the fact that Chinese President Xi Jinping had promised him in a phone call a year ago that Beijing would not get involved.
