The two sides had a candid and in-depth exchange of views on the crisis situation in Ukraine, the peace talks and other issues of mutual interest and concern. Head of the Chinese Mission to the European Union (EU) Ambassador Fu Cong was present.

Li Hui once again expressed to the European side China's stern position of firmly opposing the EU's unilateral sanctions and "long-arm jurisdiction" against Chinese enterprises.
