French President Emmanuel Macron arrived in Beijing on Wednesday for a three-day state visit during which he is expected to meet with China's President Xi Jinping. Macron is expected to warn China against sending weapons to Russia and instead ask that the country use its influence to support peace efforts. Beijing claims to hold a neutral stance in the war, but has also stressed its “no-limits friendship” with Russia. China’s President Xi last month met with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow. China has refused to criticize Russia for its actions in Ukraine. A top French official acknowledged that Paris isn’t expecting to see a major shift in that position.
