When asked whether China plans to take any new measures to help resolve the Ukraine crisis, Mao Ning, spokesperson for Chinese Foreign Ministry, said dialogue and negotiation is the only viable way to resolve the Ukraine crisis.

Mao made the remarks in response to a question concerning US President Donald Trump's video address at the World Economic Forum in Davos that he hoped that China will play a major and constructive role in ending the conflict in Ukraine.  

Mao said dialogue and negotiation is the only viable way to resolve the Ukraine crisis. We are happy to see that all parties play a constructive role and build conditions for de-escalation and the political settlement of the crisis. 

China will continue to promote peace talks and stands ready to maintain communication with other parties, Mao noted.
