[モスクワ ２７日 ロイター] – Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Monday that China’s peace plan for Ukraine should be analyzed in detail, taking into account the interests of all parties concerned.

China announced the arbitration proposal on the 24th, one year after Russia began its all-out invasion of Ukraine. He called for a comprehensive ceasefire, a gradual easing of the confrontation, and a calming of the situation, while at the same time expressing his opposition to the use of nuclear weapons.

“We are paying close attention to the proposals of our friendly China,” Peskov told reporters, adding that such initiatives, which could bring about peace, deserve attention. “It will require a careful analysis of the details, taking into account the interests of all parties involved. It will be a very long and intensive process,” he said.

He added that Russia was continuing its “special military operations” in Ukraine, but had so far seen no signs of a peaceful resolution.

He declined to comment on U.S. media reports that China was considering giving Russia drones.

China announced an “unrestricted friendship” with Russia just before Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine. At the meeting of finance ministers and central bank governors of 20 countries and regions (G20) that ended on the 25th, most countries and regions condemned Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, but the adoption of a joint statement was postponed due to opposition from Russia and China. .
