China notes Ukrainian foreign minister’s rebuttal of US media report - superadmin - 05-30-2023 After Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba openly refuted a Wall Street Journal report claiming that China had proposed an immediate cease-fire and recognition of the "occupied territories of Ukraine as part of Russia," the Chinese Foreign Ministry said on Monday that it had noted the rebuttal.Some Chinese experts called the US media report a typical disinformation and part of a smear campaign launched by the US against China amid the Ukraine crisis.  In a rare move, Kuleba made the clarification in a video message after an article appeared in the US media outlet claiming that China's Special Representative for Eurasian Affairs Li Hui "carried a clear message" during his trip to Europe: US allies in Europe should assert their authority and urge an immediate cease-fire, leaving Russia in possession of the parts of its smaller neighbor that it now occupies, citing unnamed Western officials.  After the WSJ article was published, the Ukrainian foreign minister immediately contacted his colleagues in the European capitals that Li had visited, and none of them confirmed that negotiations had been held to recognize the territories currently controlled by Russia, according to Ukrainian media reports. - More -
