Psaki says Chinese refusal to denounce Ukraine invasion 'flies in the face of everything China stands for'

China has remained opaque on its position regarding the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

"The president, as I think you've heard him say before, and I've said, is a big believer and leader to diplomacy. And they have a lot to discuss, given the last time the president met with President Xi virtually was last November, a couple of months ago. The meeting tomorrow – in terms of how we got here – came as a direct follow-up to the meeting our national security advisor, Jake Sullivan, had with his counterpart. They talked about the two presidents meeting or engaging in the near future during that meeting.
