China's call for an urgent ceasefire and peace talks to end the war between Ukraine and Russia was today met with scepticism in Kyiv and the West, with the head of NATO arguing that Beijing 'doesn't have much credibility'.
Western leaders have questioned what the real motive behind China's 12-point peace plan is - given that Beijing has stood shoulder-to-shoulder with Russia and parroted the Kremlin's talking points about NATO expansionism.
China has claimed it wants to prevent the crisis from getting out of control, noting that dialogue and negotiation are the only viable ways to resolve the conflict, according to a position paper released on Friday.
But its 'peace' proposal has been met with scepticism in the West and Ukraine. In its 12-point plan, Beijing called for an end to Western sanctions, negotiations which would likely see Ukraine ceding territory, a NATO pull-back from its eastern borders and reconstruction efforts that would likely benefit Chinese contractors.

China has only one aim in its foreign policy - weaken the United States.
“Peace. Ungh!
What is it good for?
Absolutely nuthin’
Say it again.”
“China has only one aim in its foreign policy - weaken the United States”.
And then utterly destroy the United States. They will show us no mercy when the time comes.
Off topic, but did Anthony Blinken have a hard rock BAND?? I think I just heard that on the radio!
I never ever trust statements by China. Here are 2 theories:
1 Cover to avoid sanctions while they arm Russia.
2 Russia is about to have difficulty with the Ukraine Sorting offensive and China is trying to give them a way out.
Wish it were 2, probably it’s one.
Spring offensive
It doesn’t matter who proposes a peace plan, it’s obvious the US neocons aren’t interested.
Correction. Strengthen China.
Also take advantage while the US government weakens the United States.
Wow… “western leaders” say China lacks credibility. Yeah, those very trustworthy leaders such as Biden And Boris Johnson.
China certainly lacks credibility but, as difficult as that is to accomplish, these “western leaders” are even more lacking in credibility,
It’s both, I think, and there’s one provision about “no new security treaties.” That’s obviously aimed at Taiwan and the important Russian goal of leaving Ukraine defenseless so it can be attacked again.
“China has only one aim in its foreign policy - weaken the United States.”
They have a long way to go with catching up with the deep state led by Biden in weakening the United states.
“China’s call for an urgent ceasefire and peace talks to end the war between Ukraine and Russia was today met with skepticism in Kyiv and the West”
Morons!
The assholes on both sides of the Congressional aisle don't need China's help. They've been doing a good enough job on their own for many years. Getting rich while bringing the country to its knees.
anything that asks Ukraine to cede territory, including Crimes is a non-stater
anything that does not give Russia the 5 Oblasts it claims is a non-starter.
And negotiations are a big fail.
“China has only one aim in its foreign policy - weaken the United States.”
That’s a fact.
