Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba will travel to China for a three-day trip starting on Tuesday, Ukraine’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs said.
Kuleba’s visit comes at the invitation of Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi, the ministry said on Monday.
The chief topic of the talks will be ending Russia’s attacks on Ukraine and China’s role in achieving an enduring and just peace, it said.
In Moscow, the Kremlin reacted cautiously to the announcement of the visit.
“For us, our relations with China are the main thing,” said Russian President Vladimir Putin’s spokesman, Dmitry Peskov. “We intend to continue following the path of developing Russian-Chinese relations in all areas.”
Ukraine has been defending itself against Russia’s all-out invasion for more than two years. Kiev has repeatedly tried to get Beijing on its side, despite the “no limits” partnership declared by Chinese President Xi Jinping and Putin in February 2022.
Kiev’s Western allies view China as one of Russia’s main supporters, although Beijing says it takes a neutral stance in the war.
