Zelensky rejects Chinese role in Ukraine security

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said that he did not want China playing a role in guaranteeing Ukraine's security following Russia's invasion, citing Beijing's alleged support for Moscow.

"First, China did not help us stop this war from the start. Second, China assisted Russia by opening its drone market... We do not need guarantors who do not help Ukraine and did not help Ukraine at the time when we really needed it," Zelensky said in comments released to reporters including AFP on Thursday.
