Chinese President Xi Jinping has an opportunity to make history in pushing for a resolution to the war in Ukraine, the United Nations’ most senior official in China said, encouraging Beijing to take a more active part in ending the bloodshed.
“I see China as a country which can play an important role in mediating the crisis,” Siddharth Chatterjee, the UN’s resident coordinator in China told Bloomberg News. “China has the ability, it has the bandwidth. It has the sensitivity. It has the understanding of the complexity of the geopolitics.”
“To me, this is China’s Nobel Prize moment,” he added. “A real Nobel Peace Prize moment.”
