According to SAEDNEWS, Chinese President Xi Jinping announced on Monday that China will continue to "promote peace and dialogue" as part of its efforts to find a political solution to the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine.

After meeting with Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Store, Xi stated that China supports all initiatives aimed at peacefully resolving the conflict. He expressed hope that all parties involved will "accumulate favorable conditions for a political solution to the crisis through dialogue."

On July 8, Xi remarked that both Ukraine and Russia should consider laying down their arms and seek a diplomatic resolution. He made these statements during a meeting with Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban.

"It is in the interests of all parties to end hostilities and find a political solution as soon as possible," Xi said, according to TASS.

He emphasized the importance of three key principles: preventing the fire from spreading beyond the battlefield, avoiding escalation, and stopping anyone from fueling the conflict. Xi also highlighted the need to "contribute to de-escalation as soon as possible."
