CHINA-UKRAINE: CHINA'S AMBASSADOR TO UNSC BLAMES NATO'S EASTWARD EXPANSION FOR WAR IN UKRAINE
|
The South China Morning Post (May 6) reported that on the eve of the anniversary of the 1999
NATO bombing of the Chinese embassy in Belgrade, China has again blamed the bloc’s
eastward expansion for the war in Ukraine. Zhang Jun, China’s Ambassador to the United
Nations, made the statement at a United Nations Security Council meeting on Ukraine on May
5 more than two months after Russia’s invasion. Zhang Jun repeated Beijing’s position by calling for a peaceful resolution to the war and for efforts to limit the humanitarian impact of
the war.
