- The President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky invited Chinese leader Xi Jinping to Ukraine. The President of Ukraine communicated with the President of the Peopleʼs Republic of China before the start of a full-scale war. He has repeatedly said that he wants to talk to Xi Jinping. It was expected that after the Chinese leaderʼs visit to Moscow in March, a conversation between him and Zelensky would take place, but the Presidentʼs Office said that there were some difficulties with the organization due to Chinaʼs position.
