"If maybe many, many people were hoping that China could somehow be or take the role of a [peace] broker, China's not doing this at all. China is certainly moving right now overtly on the side of Russia. And this is actually a very big challenge and a big difficulty for all of us," he said.
"We have looked very carefully at [the] communication coming out of the Xi Jinping meeting with Vladimir Putin," Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte told CNBC. "We very much hope that the phone call will take place as soon as possible between Xi Jinping and Volodymyr Zelenskyy." While Ukraine has previously called out Hungary and Germany for getting too close to Russia, it has kept a more amicable tone toward Beijing.
