They criticize Ukraine for holding negotiations between the US and Russia regarding the resolution of the conflict on its territory without the participation of Ukraine itself and European countries. China's special envoy for European affairs, Lu Shaye, expressed criticism regarding this matter. He noted that the peaceful future of Ukraine should be determined by all interested parties. Lu Shaye also expressed surprise at President Trump's policy towards European allies, deeming it arrogant and domineering.

The diplomat emphasized that a peaceful resolution of the conflict should be the result of equal negotiations among all parties, rather than the imposition of conditions by a few states.
