The New York Times reported that French President Emmanuel Macron's attempt to persuade Xi Jinping to put pressure on Russia on the situation in Ukraine did not lead to any results.

It is specified that Xi Jinping “angrily” responded to criticism from Western countries due to cooperation with Moscow.

The author of the publication emphasized that During the negotiations held in Paris, the leaders supported the call for the “Olympic Truce,” but after that there was no pressure on Russia from Beijing.

“Xi Jinping resolutely opposed criticism of China for close relations in the Russian Federation. He said that he was “against this crisis being used to shift responsibility to third countries,” the newspaper writes.
