According to him, in this matter, Beijing is guided by personal goals and wants to become a peacemaker, taking a neutral position. “In fact, China always and in all its initiatives pursues its own interests first. His own interests today are to look like a peacemaker,” the TASS expert quotes.
He noted that the peace plan proposed by China, consisting of 12 points, largely corresponds to the position of the Russian Federation, but a number of points, in his opinion, are unacceptable to Moscow.
However, Guseletov continued, although only general positions have been declared, the matter has not yet reached the details. Perhaps in the future it will become clearer to what extent Russia and China agree and whether they can work together to implement these proposals.
Recall that Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping held talks in Moscow on March 20 and 21, first in a tête-à-tête format, and later with the participation of delegations. According to the Russian leader, during the talks he spent a lot of time discussing Beijing’s peace plan for Ukraine.
