The President of the European Commission and the NATO Secretary General this Friday devalued the Chinese peace plan for the war in Ukraine, considering that Beijing “does not enjoy confidence” because it “took sides” and signed a “limitless partnership” with Moscow. .
At a joint press conference in Tallinn, at an event marking the anniversary of Estonian independence and the first anniversary of the war unleashed by Russia in Ukraine, Ursula von der Leyen and Jens Stoltenberg thus devalued the 12-point ceasefire plan. between Ukraine and Russia represented by Beijing.
“This is not exactly a peace plan, but principles that China shares. And I think we have to look at these principles against a concrete background. And this background is that China took sides, signing, for example, an agreement on unlimited friendship just before the invasion began. So, we will consider the principles, of course, but we will analyze them against the backdrop against which China spoke,” the chairman of the commission said.
