TIL Desk/World/Moscow/ Ahead of his crucial talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow, Chinese President Xi Jinping said on Monday that his peace plan to end the raging Ukraine war takes into account the ‘legitimate’ concerns of all parties and reflects the broadest common understanding of the international community.
Xi arrived in Moscow on a three-day official visit, official media in China reported on Monday. Making his first visit abroad after his endorsement as President and head of the military for an unprecedented third five-year term by China’s Parliament earlier this month, Xi is due to hold talks with Putin during which he is expected to pitch for peace talks to end the Ukraine conflict.
‘Russia was the first country I visited after I was elected President 10 years ago,’ Xi said in an article titled ‘Forging Ahead to Open a New Chapter of China-Russia Friendship, Cooperation and Common Development’ published in Russia’s newspaper on Monday.
