Ukrainian President Folodimir Zelinski called for China to interact with the latest Russian strikes on Kiev, which he said had killed at least eight people, one of whom was a child, leaving dozens more wound and besieged under the rubble.

“We expect a reaction from China to what is going on,” Zelinski said in a publication on Thursday morning, August 28, accusing parts of the world of overcoming deaths and making excuses for Russian President Vladimir Putin.

“China has repeatedly called for not to expand the war and a ceasefire. However, this does not happen because of Russia.”

Russia and China strategic partners. China has helped the sick Russian economy by biting Western sanctions with large -scale oil purchases.

The Kremlin says he wants peace, but he has increased his weather attacks and pushes along the front lines in Ukraine in recent weeks, and has rejected calls for a ceasefire because it has more regional gains.
