Ukraine and Russia would be better served laying down their arms and finding a diplomatic solution to their problems, Chinese leader Xi Jinping has said at a meeting with visiting Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban.
"It is in the interests of all parties to end hostilities and find a political solution as soon as possible," China's state broadcaster CCTV quoted Xi as saying.
"At present, following three principles is of paramount importance: preventing fire from going beyond the battlefield, preventing escalation and preventing anyone from fueling the conflict," Xi insisted.
He also highlighted the need "to contribute to de-escalation as soon as possible."
