Foreign Secretary James Cleverly urged China to help bring Russia’s war in Ukraine to end, as he used a trip to Beijing to mend the UK’s ties with the world’s second largest economy.

Cleverly said in an interview on Wednesday in Beijing that he called on Chinese officials to stand by their past commitments to uphold Ukraine’s territorial integrity. He was responding to a question about a Bloomberg News report Tuesday that Putin had accepted China’s invitation to visit, in what would be the Russian leader’s first overseas trip since being indicted on allegations of war crimes.
