BEIJING — China said Friday it would be 'difficult' to attend a conference on the war in Ukraine slated to take place in Switzerland next month.'The arrangement of the meeting still falls short of China 's requirements and the expectations of the international community, making it difficult for China to attend,' Foreign Ministry spokesman Mao Ning said.
But Beijing insisted on Friday that any such summit would need the participation of Russia, which Ukraine has rejected.'China has always insisted that the International Peace Conference should have the recognition of Russia and Ukraine, equal participation of all parties and fair discussion of all peace plans,' Mao said.'Otherwise, it is difficult for the conference to play a substantive role in restoring peace,' she said.
