The United States opposes the ceasefire in Ukraine and rejects the proposals put forward by China to resolve the crisis. This was announced on Thursday at an online briefing by the coordinator for strategic communications at the National Security Council (NSC) of the White House, John Kirby.
"We would, of course, be concerned about any Chinese proposals that would be unilateral and reflect only the point of view of Russia," the White House spokesman said. "For example, you guys have seen the 12-point plan [previously unveiled by Beijing] with fanfare," Kirby continued. "It calls for a cease-fire." "And although it sounds reasonable enough, it sounds like a good idea, the ceasefire currently, in fact, ratifies Russia's conquests, it would actually recognize Russia's [territorial] acquisitions," the NSC official claimed.
"The cease-fire now, in our view, represents yet another violation of the UN Charter," Kirby said.
