Russian President Vladimir Putin will discuss the topic of Ukraine peace with Chinese President Xi Jinping during his visit to Moscow, the Kremlin said Monday.
“One way or another, the topics which are touched upon in [Beijing’s peace] plan, of course, will inevitably be touched upon during the exchange of views on Ukraine [between Putin and Xi],” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters.
Of course, exhaustive explanations will be given by President Putin, so that [Chinese] President Xi Jinping can get a first-hand view of the current situation from the Russian side,” he added.
Putin and Xi are expected to have an “informal but very important” meeting Monday afternoon Moscow time, according to Peskov.
“The heads of state will raise the most pressing issues at their discretion,” he added.
Xi is expected to meet with Putin after 4:30 p.m. local time (9.30 a.m. ET) Monday.
