China is “deeply worried” about the escalation of the Ukraine conflict and the possibility of the situation spiraling out of control, China’s foreign minister Qin Gang said on Tuesday.

Beijing, which last year struck a “no limits” partnership with Moscow, has refrained from condemning Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
