The People's Republic of China can become an important element in the global security system if it joins the coalition of civilized countries and condemns the actions of the Russian army in Ukraine, Mykhailo Podoliak, adviser to the head of the President's Office said.

"China can be the global security system's important element if it makes a right decision to support the civilized countries' coalition and condemn Russia's barbarism. It is a chance to sit at the table as equals," Podoliak said on Twitter on Saturday.

He also said the West "must explain to Beijing how $1.6 trillion differs from $150 billion [China's trade with Western countries and Russia, respectively]."
