Zelensky warns of world war risk if China backs Russia in Ukraine

BY A STAFF REPORTER: Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has warned that if China supports Russia against Ukraine, world war could break out. "I hope Beijing maintains a pragmatic attitude, otherwise you will risk World War III, I think they are well aware of it," he said. Zelensky said he had "publicly appealed to the Chinese leadership not to give any support to Russia in the war." Since the early 1990s, china has always kept its commitment to the Budapest Memorandum of Understanding and all the agreements that have been signed since then. I personally hope that the international community will come together to support my 10-point peace plan, in which Americans, Chinese and major powers guarantee the protection of world security. "
