China supports Trump's Ukraine peace efforts at G20 as U.S. allies back Zelenskyy

China has expressed support for U.S. President Donald Trump's efforts to negotiate peace in Ukraine during a G20 meeting in South Africa. This marks a shift as Trump has moved away from isolating Russia, engaging directly with President Vladimir Putin. While Trump criticized Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, U.S. allies, including Australia, Germany, and the UK, voiced their support for Zelenskyy. China emphasized its willingness to play a constructive role in resolving the conflict. The Trump administration plans to continue discussions with Russia to end the ongoing war. Russia has responded by hardening its demands, particularly regarding NATO's involvement with Ukraine.
