China Respects Ukrainian Territorial Integrity (Spokesperson)

China respects the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine, Chinese Foreign Ministry's spokesperson Hua Chunying said commenting on the elections in Donetsk and Luhansk People's Republics (DPR and LPR) Monday.

"China upholds the principle of non-interference in others' internal affairs and respects sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine. We hope that all parties will hold dear the ceasefire that is not easily achieved, keep calm, exercise restraint, properly resolve relevant differences through dialogue and consultation and work in concert to push for the political settlement of the crisis," the spokesperson said. Elections in the self-proclaimed Donetsk and Luhansk People's Republics, aimed at legitimizing new authorities, went ahead on Sunday with no significant incidents and with high voter turnouts.

Earlier, the Russian Foreign Ministry issued an official statement on the elections in DPR and LPR. According to the statement, Russia respects the process of self-determination in south-east Ukraine and acknowledges that elected representatives have gained the mandate for tackling the issues of restoring peace in the regions.
