🇨🇳 A representative of China was not among the participants in the “Ukrainian peace formula” meeting, despite the fact that Beijing received an invitation, media reports citing a source.
According to the source, Davos was deliberately chosen as the venue for a next meeting on the Ukrainian “peace formula” so that it would take place in a place where representatives of China are already present (the World Economic Forum is being held in Davos). However, Beijing refused to participate.
