China has key role in finding ‘path to peace’ in Ukraine, Macron says

Published Fri, 21 Feb 2025 11:24:01 GMT

BEIJING — French President Emmanuel Macron said Wednesday that while he disagrees with China’s peace plan for Ukraine, it shows Beijing wants to “build a pathway toward peace.” Speaking to representatives of the French community in Beijing ahead of his meeting with his Chinese counterpart Thursday, Macron said he did not agree with China’s 12-point peace plan but argued that Europeans should engage with China to find a resolution to the war in Ukraine.“China, with its close relationship with Russia, which has been reaffirmed in recent days, can play a major role,” he said. China’s peace plan, which was unveiled in February, has drawn fire for failing to describe the war as a Russian invasion and for criticizing Western sanctions on Russia. “Do we agree with everything in [China’s plan]? No. However it shows … a will to play a responsible role and try to build a pathway to peace,” he said.“We, Europeans, would be mistaken to let Russia be the only European nation spe...

Zelenskyy’s Warsaw visit overshadowed by political blowup

Published Fri, 21 Feb 2025 11:24:01 GMT

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s state visit Wednesday to Warsaw blew up into a political crisis when Poland’s agriculture minister quit on the same day over his inability to cut the amount of Ukrainian agricultural products flooding into the country.That’s a key political issue for Poland’s ruling Law and Justice party, which has to keep farmers onside ahead of this fall’s parliamentary election; farmers are increasingly outraged over falling produce prices caused by soaring Ukrainian imports.Zelenskyy was greeted with the full pomp due a visiting head of state, complete with military bands and marching soldiers. It’s a sign of the weight of the relationship between the two countries. Poland and Ukraine have centuries of tangled ties, often cooperating and sometimes warring against each other, but Russia’s full-scale invasion a year ago has made them very close allies. In an address last year, Zelenskyy even called Poland a “sister” nati...
