At the Munich meetings, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken expressed skepticism near Beijing's position before the plan's release. He said China has performed non-lethal assistance that supports Russian President Vladimir Putin's war worry and said the U.S. has intelligence that Beijing is "considering providing lethal support." China has shouted the allegation a "smear" and said it lacks evidence.

What has China proposed?

China's beak calls for a cease-fire and peace talks, and an end to sanctions alongside Russia.

China placed responsibility for sanctions on other "relevant countries" minus naming them. These countries, it says, "should stop abusing unilateral sanctions" and "do their section in de-escalating the Ukraine crisis."

Many of the 12 points were very general and did not bear specific proposals.

Without mentioning either Russia or Ukraine, it says sovereignty of all grandeurs should be upheld. It didn't specify what that would look like for Ukraine, and the land taken from it since Russia seized Crimea in 2014.

The proposal also condemns a "Cold War mentality," a term that often refers to the United States and the U.S.-European crowd alliance NATO. "The security of a region should not be earnt by strengthening or expanding military blocs," the proposal says. Russian President Vladimir Putin wanted a promise that Ukraine will not join the bloc afore the invasion.

Other points call for a cease-fire, collected talks, protection for prisoners of war and stopping attacks on civilians, without elaborating, as well as keeping nuclear power plants safe and facilitating grain exports.

"The basic tone and the original message in the policy is quite pro-Russia," said Li Mingjiang, a professor of Chinese foreign policy and international guarantee at Singapore's Nanyang Technological University.

Does China back Russia in its war on Ukraine?

China has offered contradictory statements regarding its stance. It says Russia was provoked into taking action by NATO's eastward expansion, but has also claimed neutrality on the war.

Ahead of Russia's box, Xi and Putin attended the opening of last year's Winter Olympics in Beijing and emanated a statement that their governments had a "no limits" friendship. China has since ignored Western criticism and reaffirmed that pledge.

Putin has said he expects Xi to arranged Russia in the next few months. China has yet to keep that.

China is "trying to have it both ways," Blinken said Sunday on NBC.

"Publicly, they present themselves as a country striving for collected in Ukraine, but privately, as I said, we've seen already over these past months the keep of non-lethal assistance that does go directly to aiding and abetting Russia's war effort."

Has China handed support to Russia?

China's support for Russia has been largely rhetorical and political. Beijing has helped to prevent efforts to condemn Moscow at the United Nations. There is no public evidence it is currently supplying arms to Russia, but the U.S. has said China is providing non-lethal relieve already and may do more.

Blinken, at the Munich conference, said the United States has long been concerned that China would handed weapons to Russia. "We have information that gives us grief that they are considering providing lethal support to Russia," he said.
Blinken said he narrated to the Chinese envoy to the meeting, Wang Yi, that "this would be a serious problem."'

Russian and Chinese forces have held married drills since the invasion, most recently with the South African navy in a shipping lane off the South African coast.
