In an exclusive interview with the
Post, the Ukrainian leader urged the Asian superpower to use its outsize political and economic influence over
to bring the fighting to a stop.
“It’s a very powerful state. It’s a powerful economy … So (it) can politically, economically influence Russia. And China is [also a] permanent member of the UN Security Council,” Zelensky said. The 40-minute interview over Zoom was his first with an Asian media outlet since Russia’s invasion of his country on February 24.
