Japanese PM Fumio Kishida is en route to Ukraine for a surprise visit. As per reports, he is heading to Kyiv for talks with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
Xi’s trip — his first abroad since his re-election earlier this month — showed off Beijing’s new diplomatic swagger and gave a political lift to Putin just days after an international arrest warrant was issued for the Kremlin leader on war crimes charges related to Ukraine.
Ever since the war erupted against Russian forces, President Zelenskyy took staunch action against those involved in spying or other corruption charges.
In a surprise move, China came out with a proposal to end the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war as the brutal battle on Ukraine soil completed one year with the loss of thousands of lives and unscalable destruction in the Ukrainian cities.
The top US official said that America also approached other nations such as China and India to soft-soap Russia with their diplomatic leverage and added the results were positive.
Instead of escaping the brutal war, Zelenskyy filmed a rebellious video of himself outside the presidential offices with his four closest aides arrayed behind him.
Although the Ukrainian citizens were acquainted with Russia's ill intentions, they were oblivious that a topsy-turvy journey had been waiting for them.
Biden is to speak on the day that Putin was delivering his long-delayed state-of-the-nation address, in which he announced that Moscow would suspend its participation in the last remaining nuclear arms control pact with the United States.
Chinese Foreign Minister Qin Gang asserted that President Xi Jinping has been actively advocating to negotiate a peace deal between the two nations which have been facing unprecedented war since last year.
The world had no idea that Joe Biden had a trip planned for Ukraine, but US officials had given Moscow notice of the secret visit.
Zelenskyy ascertained that the possibility of China engaging with Russia is very low as his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping understands the sensibility of assisting a country which is ravaging a brutal war against its neighbouring nation.
The surprise visit comes days ahead when the country marks one year since Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
NATO Chief underscored that the world needs to provide more lethal weapons to the war-torn nation and urged the international community to extend maximum assistance to Ukraine.
Zelenskyy, who donned his trademark olive drab sweatshirt, urged allies to send his country jets, saying combat aircraft would be “wings for freedom.”
Zelenskyy's UK visit: According to a statement by the British government, the embattled President will meet Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and also address the Parliament.
The spokesperson for Ukraine’s State Emergency Service, Oleksandr Khorunzhyi, said that in addition to the dead, at least 11 people were wounded
Zelenskyy had promised personnel changes in the government, regional administrations and security forces following corruption allegations that emerged after Russia's invasion last February.
Putin, who was addressing a meeting with veterans on Wednesday, asserted that Moscow had tried its best to refrain its soldiers from raging an "military operation" against its neighbouring nation but it left with no other option.
The latest attacks came amid the families returning to the war-torn state to reunite with their families in order to welcome the new year.
Amid war with Russia, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in a telephonic conversation with PM Modi wished India a successful G20 Presidency and thanked him for New Delhi's humanitarian support to the country.
