WSJ cited sources familiar with the matter, stating that Chinese officials have sent proposals to President Trump's side over the past few weeks regarding holding a U.S.-Russia summit and peacekeeping efforts following a ceasefire.


According to the sources, China's proposal involves a summit between the U.S. and Russia without the involvement of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. The sources also said that China proposed dispatching peacekeeping forces to the Russia-Ukraine region after the ceasefire to act as a "guarantor."


However, WSJ reported that due to concerns over the close relationship between China and Russia, the U.S. and Europe have responded skeptically to China's proposal.


The White House did not confirm whether it had received such a proposal from China, and a White House official dismissed the proposal as "completely unfeasible."



The Chinese Embassy in Washington, when asked about the matter, said it was unaware of the proposal and responded, "We hope the parties will work toward easing tensions and a political resolution."
