The Chinese Red Cross will offer an additional 10 million yuan ($1.57 million) of humanitarian assistance to Ukraine, Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin told reporters on Monday.
Wang’s comments came at a regular briefing in Beijing and the promise of aid follows previous pledges of aid to Ukraine including one of 5 million yuan from earlier this month.
“China pays close attention to the civilian casualties in the Russia-Ukraine conflict,” Wang said, noting that the top priority for the international community now is to deal with the possible large-scale humanitarian crisis.
Wang said China has put forward a six-point initiative on alleviating the humanitarian situation in Ukraine and has taken concrete actions, including providing humanitarian aid supplies.
“China will continue to play a constructive role in easing the situation in Ukraine and stands ready to make its own efforts to overcome the humanitarian crisis,” said Wang.
