FM Kuleba Strikes Positive Tone Following Call w/Chinese Counterpart

Finbar Bermingham at SCMP tweets thread on Chinese FM Wang Yi's call with Ukrainian counterpart Dmytro Kuleba:

• "Chinese readout of Wang-Kuleba call, with a veiled dig at the West "China does not seek geopolitical self-interest, does not have the mentality of watching the fire from across the river, and will not do anything to pour oil on the fire."
• "Wang: "China is willing to uphold an objective and impartial position and continue to play a constructive role to this end in its own way. We believe the Ukrainian side is wise enough to make a choice on its own that is in the fundamental interests of its people."
• "Kuleba: "The Ukrainian side values China's international influence and prestige and is willing to maintain communication with China, hoping that China will continue to play an important role for a ceasefire to stop the war." Kuleba also tweeted very positively about the call. Reminder: EU is seeking talks between Xi and Zelensky, which have not yet been forthcoming. "
