Hello and welcome to the details of China denies pressuring other countries over Ukraine peace summit and now with the details
Nevin Al Sukari - Sana'a - BEIJING, June 3 — China today denied accusations by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky that it was trying to prevent other countries from attending a planned peace summit on the war in Ukraine.
Zelensky said at a security forum in Singapore yesterday that Beijing was “working hard today to prevent countries from coming to the peace summit” due to be hosted by Switzerland later this month.
Kyiv hopes the summit will help it win broad international backing for its vision of the terms needed to end Russia’s invasion.

China criticised the conference last week, saying it would be “difficult” for it to attend if Russia did not participate.
Beijing’s foreign ministry said today that “China’s position is open and transparent, and there is absolutely no instance of us putting pressure on other countries”.
“On peace talks, China’s position is fair and just. It does not target any third country, and of course is not aimed at Switzerland’s hosting of this summit for peace,” spokeswoman Mao Ning said at a regular press briefing.

Zelensky said Sunday that more than 100 countries and organisations had signed up to the conference so far.
China insists it is a neutral party in the conflict and is striving to bring an end to hostilities through dialogue.
But Beijing has been criticised by Western nations for cultivating strong ties with Moscow and giving Russian President Vladimir Putin diplomatic and political cover to wage a war of aggression. — AFP
