He pointed out that he has heard from his Chinese colleague several times as China strongly supports the ceasefire, but that it is not enough, he reports Guardian.
“We would have to see the pressure on Russia to come down the fire and personally, I personally believe that China was the only country that could actually impose ceasefire in this war.” Said Sikorski.
He reminded that in January 2022, before the beginning of the war in Ukraine, there was an intrusion of the Russian army in Kazakhstan and assessed that then Beijing told Moscow to withdraw, otherwise they will stop trading them.
“I think Russia is now so dependent on China that it is a very powerful lever that China has, and the question is of course to use it,” said Sikorski.
