Hua Chunying 华春莹 (@SpokespersonCHN) / Twitter The Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson, Hua Chunying has also been addressing this on her Twitter account (https://twitter.com/SpokespersonCHN). Here are the main points so far: China will send the Special Representative of the Chinese Government on Eurasian Affairs to Ukraine and other countries to have in-depth communication with all parties on political settlement of the Ukraine crisis. China has provided multiple batches of humanitarian assistance to Ukraine and will keep providing help to the best of its ability. With rational thinking and voices now on the rise, it is important to seize the opportunity and build up favorable conditions for the political settlement of the crisis. It is hoped that all parties would seriously reflect on the Ukraine crisis and jointly explore ways to bring lasting peace and stability to Europe through dialogue. China did not create the Ukraine crisis, nor is it a party to the crisis. As a permanent member of the UN Security Council and a responsible major country, China would not sit idly by, nor would it add oil to the fire, still less exploit the situation for self gains. Everything China does is aboveboard. Dialogue and negotiation are the only viable way forward. On the Ukraine crisis, China always stands on the side of peace. Its core stance is to facilitate talks for peace. China is consistent and clear-cut in its readiness to develop bilateral relations with Ukraine. Two sides need to carry forward the tradition of mutual respect and sincerity, and take the China-Ukraine strategic partnership forward.
