Ukraine says China did not consult it when preparing peace plan

The Chinese government did not consult Kiev when preparing its peace plan to end the war in Ukraine, a senior Ukrainian official said on condition of anonymity.
“China did not consult us,” the official told reporters.
Beijing has promised to publish its plan for a “political settlement” of the conflict in Ukraine this week, which marks the first anniversary of the Russian invasion of the neighboring country.
Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba said his Chinese counterpart Wang Yi discussed “key elements of the Chinese peace plan” during their meeting in Germany earlier this week.
