Russian President Vladimir Putin is ready to send a delegation to Minsk for negotiations with the representatives of Ukraine after he held a phone call with Chinese President Xi Jinping, who conveyed China's support to Moscow in its efforts to resolve the Ukraine crisis via dialogue.

According to a statement on the Chinese foreign ministry's website, Xi called for all sides to abandon a Cold War mentality, respect the legitimate security concerns of all countries, and form a balanced, effective and sustainable European security mechanism through negotiation.

Xi said China respects the sovereignty and territorial integrity of all countries.

Meanwhile, the Kremlin said Xi respected Russia's actions and was ready for close coordination and mutual support at the United Nations, where both are veto-holding permanent members of the Security Council.

According to the Kremlin, Putin told Xi that Russia's military operation in Ukraine was necessary to protect people against “genocide”, an accusation that the West calls baseless propaganda.

Putin also communicated to Xi that the US and North Atlantic Treaty Organisation had long ignored Russia's legitimate security concerns, repeatedly reneged on their commitments, and continued to expand military deployment eastward, challenging Russia's strategic bottom line, according to the statement on Chinese foreign ministry's website.

Russia is willing to conduct high-level negotiations with Ukraine, the statement quoted Putin as saying.

However, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov made the talks conditional to Ukraine's military laying down its arms.

He said that Moscow did not want "neo-Nazis" to govern Ukraine.

Russia launched its operation on land, air and sea on Thursday following a declaration of war by President Vladimir Putin.

China has refused to call Russia's action in Ukraine an "invasion" or criticise Moscow.

China: Putin willing to hold top-level talks with Ukraine​

26 min ago

Russian President Vladimir Putin has reportedly told his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping that Moscow is willing to hold high-level talks with Ukraine.

The two leaders spoke by phone on Friday.

A Chinese Foreign Ministry statement says Putin told Xi that the United States and NATO have long ignored Moscow's legitimate security concerns, and repeatedly broken their commitments to Russia. It also says their "continued military deployment eastward has challenged Russia's strategic red line."

The ministry quotes Xi as saying China backs Russia and Ukraine to find a solution through negotiation.

The statement says the Chinese leader urged all parties to abandon a "Cold War mentality" and build a "sustainable European security mechanism."

He will hold talks with a installed puppet regime.
That is how it was done in the Soviet era.
He is just following the script laid down by past Soviet leaders, Hitler and the Chinese "communists" who are as communist as my cat.

The EU's foreign policy chief said he has urged China to use its influence with Moscow to respect the Ukraine's sovereignty, adding that if the U.N.General Assembly fails to condemn Russia's invasion of Ukraine it is "the law of the jungle". "I've been talking with the Chinese minister this morning, asking him to use their influence ... to respect the sovereignty and integrity of everybody, including Ukraine," Josep Borrell told reporters.


Referring to a resolution on Russia's invasion of Ukraine at the U.N. Security Council, he said that it would be vetoed by Moscow, but he hoped the resolution would then be adopted by the General Assembly. "If the United Nations doesn't condemn what Russia is doing then it is the law of the jungle. It is the law of the stronger, the one who is mighty and then invades the others using brutal force," he told reporters as he went into a meeting of European Union foreign ministers in Brussels.

"If the United Nations don't condemn the Russian behaviour then it is the whole international system that is being put in cause."
