He noted that China continues to uphold four core principles in the process of resolving the situation, including respect for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of all countries, adherence to the purposes and principles of the UN Charter, peaceful resolution of disputes, and taking into account the “legitimate security interests” of all parties – a phrase often used in Russian propaganda to justify the invasion of Ukraine.
