With the war in Ukraine well into its fourth year and negotiations advancing in fits and starts, questions are mounting over how the world’s major powers might shape the terms—and outcomes—of any eventual peace. What role, if any, should China play in a potential cessation of hostilities in Ukraine? Can the Trump administration influence China’s policies toward Ukraine and Russia?
