Ms. Mao said all the countries Li visited expressed their hope that China will continue to push dialogues and exchanges with all parties to reach a consensus on the Russia-Ukraine conflict.

On Monday, Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen said Denmark plans to increase its spending on military aid to Ukraine by 2.59 billion USD over this year and next.
