Chinese diplomat tells Munich summit of need to uphold territorial integrity but also of respecting Russia’s legitimate security interests
She said she had spoken intensively with Mr Wang on Friday about “what a just peace means – not that you reward the aggressor, but that you stand up for international law and for those who have been attacked”.Ms Baerbock said a just peace presupposes “that the one who violated territorial integrity, namely Russia, withdraws its troops from the occupied country. World peace is based on the fact that we all recognise the territorial integrity and sovereignty of each country.
The prime minister of Namibia, Saara Kuugongelwa, said: “We want to solve the problem, we don’t want to find the culprit. It is of no use that Russia is spending money on weapons and the west is financing Ukraine to buy weapons.” At the Munich conference, a succession of European leaders, including the French president Emmanuel Macron, admitted the West should have done more to convince the south that its strong support for Ukraine was not born of double standards.“I am struck by how we have lost the trust of the global south,” Mr Macron said. He argued that the world’s response to the war showed the need to rebalance the global order and make its institutions more inclusive.
