Hint from China that they may not be so 'bonded' to Putin 'as we thought': Chris Smith

Sky News host Chris Smith says we got an “inkling” from China today that they may not be so “bonded” to Russian President Vladimir Putin as we thought.

Mr Smith said Beijing’s Foreign Minister acknowledged there was a war in Ukraine, and they hoped the fighting and the war stopped as soon as possible.

“But how about they pick up the telephone to their new best friend in Moscow and tell him directly to stop killing innocent Ukrainians and stop the war.

“We can only hope that China becomes the most unexpected saviour for the Ukrainian people; it could be a stretch."
