The Ukrainian delegation, including President Volodymyr Zelensky, left Davos without meeting with the Chinese delegation led by Premier Li Qiang, although Kiev clearly expressed its intent to hold such a meeting, the report said.
According to a US official cited in the report, Kiev requested a meeting with the Chinese delegation in Davos but was refused.
However, the report also cites an unnamed Ukrainian official who refutes this account by saying that Zelensky’s team never asked for a meeting with their Chinese counterparts.
Another US official claimed that Russia asked China to cease diplomatic encounters with Ukraine and that was the main reason that a meeting was not held in Davos.
