According to the Chinese official, Russia's approach to Syria and North Korea are "logical and reasonable." The official noted that China supported Russia's suggestion to attract the expert community of the OPCW to investigate the chemical attack in Idlib. The head of the Chinese Foreign Ministry also noted that China and Russia advocated peaceful settlement of the crisis on the Korean Peninsula in connection with North Korean missile launches.
