Chinese Defense Minister Dong Jun said on Sunday that China has been promoting peace talks with a responsible attitude on the Ukraine crisis.

He made the remarks when delivering a speech on China's approach to global security at the 21st Shangri-La Dialogue held in Singapore.

China has never provided weapons to either party of the Ukraine crisis, Dong said.

The Chinese defense minister also said that on the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, China adheres to a just and impartial position and works together with the international community to push for a ceasefire.

On issues such as those concerning the Korean Peninsula, Afghanistan and Myanmar, China has actively sought political settlement and thus played a constructive role, Dong added.
