Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov is meeting with his Chinese counterpart, Wang Yi for the first time since Moscow launched a military campaign in Ukraine on February 24. Unlike many Western nations and some Asian countries, Beijing has refused to condemn Moscow and rejected calls to impose sanctions on Russia.
The neighboring countries will work to achieve “a multipolar, fair, and democratic world order,” Lavrov said after arriving in Tunxi, a city in China’s eastern inland Anhui Province, on Wednesday. Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova posted a photo of the two ministers greeting each other with an elbow bump.
Beijing has argued that economic restrictions disrupt world trade and will not resolve the conflict, and that only dialogue and diplomacy can lead to peace.
