The proposal follows China’s recent announcement that it is trying to act as mediator in the war that has re-energized Western alliances viewed by Beijing and Moscow as rivals.
China’s top diplomat indicated that the plan was coming at a security conference this week in Munich, Germany.

China has called the allegation a “smear” and said it lacks evidence.
