China's efforts to mediate peace talks between Russia and Ukraine have highlighted the significant challenges in bridging the gap between the two countries, with China's Envoy citing a 'significant gap' in positions. Despite the ongoing conflict, both Russia and Ukraine have expressed a belief in a diplomatic resolution, according to China's Special Representative for Eurasian Affairs, Li Hui. Li emphasized China's support for an international peace conference and its readiness to aid de-escalation and negotiations. However, the situation remains tense, with reports of 15 blasts in Ukraine's Kharkiv region. Meanwhile, other nations, including Turkey, have also expressed a willingness to facilitate negotiations, underscoring the international community's push for a diplomatic solution.
