STORY: Xi is the first leader to meet the Russian president after the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued an arrest warrant for him on Friday over the deportation of Ukrainian children to Russia during its year-old invasion of Ukraine.

China has released a broad 12-point proposal to solve the Ukraine crisis, while strengthening relations with Moscow.

Kyiv and its Western allies say any truce would just buy Putin time to reinforce ahead of a planned Ukrainian counter-offensive, and that for Russia and China to uphold international law as they say they do, they must agree to Russia's withdrawal.
