Zelensky accuses Russia and China of undermining summit (4 hours ago)
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has accused Russia and China of attempting to undermine his upcoming global peace summit in Switzerland.
He said Russia was trying to dissuade other states from attending the event, and that China was working to do this as well.
Speaking at an Asian security forum, he also said there were “elements of Russia’s weaponry” that come from China.
