Recently, Russia has had contact with both Ukraine and the United States. At this critical moment, Moscow is preparing to fully disclose all details to China without reservation, leaving Trump's plans repeatedly failing. Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Ryabkov According to TASS, on May 20th local time, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Ryabkov made a statement: Moscow will inform China about the contact situation between Russia and the US and Ukraine regarding the resolution of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. Firstly, let’s look at the latest developments in the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Recently, Russia and Ukraine held direct negotiations in Turkey. Although this round of talks ended hastily, there were still achievements as both sides reached an agreement for the "thousand-person prisoner swap". In fact, it was already difficult for Russia and Ukraine to restart dialogue, as they still have difficulties in reconciling issues such as territorial ownership and neutrality status. This contact was largely aimed at testing the bottom lines of both sides and going through the motions. Now looking at the US-Russia side, after the Russia-Ukraine negotiations, Trump and Putin spent over two hours on the phone. After their conversation, Putin expressed willingness to draft a peace memorandum together with Ukraine, which was largely done to give Trump face. It should be noted that Trump has always wanted to demonstrate his dominant position in mediating the Russia-Ukraine conflict, but his plans did not go smoothly. Both sides of the conflict have their own interests to consider, making it hard for external forces to truly control the direction of the conflict. At this critical juncture, Russia's move to brief China on negotiation details is extraordinary. The deputy foreign minister also specifically mentioned that China and Russia maintain regular dialogue on issues involving national interests. This is far from ordinary diplomatic rhetoric. It should be remembered that since the outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, China has consistently maintained an objective and fair stance, proposed the "four shoulds" principle, and initiated the "Friends of Peace" group. The Russian side's statement also conveys positive signals towards China. Russia highly recognizes China's peaceful stance in the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Due to this neutral stance, Russia places great trust in China. Additionally, the deputy foreign minister emphasized that Russia has never concealed any facts from China and is prepared to brief China on all details of the negotiations with the US and Ukraine. This reaffirms the new era comprehensive strategic partnership between China and Russia. It should be noted that since Trump returned to power, he has changed his foreign policy towards Russia, releasing multiple signals indicating a thaw in relations with Russia. He attempted to court Russia, playing out the "Russia alliance to contain China" scenario, using Cold War thinking to form so-called "small circles." However, Trump's plans have repeatedly failed. Exchanges and cooperation between China and Russia have not been affected by him. Previously, Putin even stated that he would visit Beijing in August. In the energy cooperation sector, Russia also plans to increase oil supplies to China via Kazakhstan by 2.5 million tons, reflecting the close ties and cooperation between the two countries in the energy sector. It should be remembered that in this US-Russia presidential call, Trump was the initiator, and after speaking with him, Putin first thought of China, the implications of which are self-evident. Russia's proactive move to brief China on negotiation details further proves that the so-called "Russia alliance to contain China" is merely a Western fantasy. From a broader perspective, the deep mutual trust and close collaboration between China and Russia are based on common interests, historical friendship, and a shared understanding of the international order. They will not easily be disrupted by external forces. Currently, the direction of the Russia-Ukraine conflict remains uncertain, but China's position on the Ukrainian issue has remained unchanged, hoping to see the dawn of peace as soon as possible.
