"We would like the Global South to be present ... it is important for us to show that the whole world is against Russia's aggression, and the whole world is for a just peace."
Ukraine said on Sunday that it was vital that Beijing was involved in talks to end the conflict.
Right back where we started, several hundred thousand people later, all so some shithead could buy up all of Ukraines agricultural land and rent it back.
Is it a war if you can't privatize everything still intact in the country afterwards?
Absolutely insane to keep doing these fake peace conferences that don't actually include Russia.
It's really just a recruiting conference to try and get people to sanction Russia, give them money and weapons, or also join the war.
It's interesting that even Ukraine knows China is a peacemaker, given they're requesting them to come. It really shows that despite the image the US Empire makes itself as a spreader of "freedom democracy", everyone knows that it's a lie.
The cynical view of this is that Ukraine is trying to use China as a lever against the US, the implication being that Ukraine will serve China another diplomatic win (after Saudi-Iran) if the US doesn't resume support.
I don't think it's going to work even if it's true, but Ukraine doesn't have many levers left.
Yeah, but when Xi called Zelensky offering mediation he heard the bottom line is Crimea, so he just shrugged and was like "at least we tried".
We would like the Global South to be present ... it is important for us to show that the whole world is against Russia's aggression, and the whole world is for a just peace."
Good thing your dipshit soldiers just posted that photo of a dark skinned Russian pow being forced to hold a banana. Not gonna alienate anyone in the global south with that one.
