Can China’s peace plan stop the war? - Around Ukraine #5

February 28, 2023

China has released a peace plan with the aim of putting forward ideas that could stop Russia's war against Ukraine - but are they realistic? The UN General Assembly's recent resolution demanding a Russian withdrawal shows overwhelming support for Ukraine, but the "abstaining" countries form a stable block. Belarusian partisans reportedly blew up a military plane in Belarus, which is a sign to Lukashenka that internal resistance to his dictatorship is increasing. There are warnings that Ukraine has been given a deadline by the West to end this war, otherwise, it might be pressed to hold talks with Russia.
