Chinese President Xi Jinping stated that a successful partnership between China and the United States allows both countries to promote each other's development rather than hinder it, according to Reuters.

"China is willing to be a partner and friend with the United States. This will benefit not only the two countries but the world," Xi said in his letter during the annual gala for the National Committee on US-China Relations 2024 awards.

Earlier, Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen remarked that Russia could not sustain a full-scale war against Ukraine for long without China's assistance, asserting that Beijing must bear responsibility for supporting the aggressor nation.

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken emphasized the United States' strong concerns regarding China's support for Russia's defense industry during talks with Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi. Blinken stated that Beijing's discussions about peace in Ukraine make no sense.
