Australia: China must join global action against Russia's Ukraine war


SYDNEY (Reuters): China must act on its declarations of promoting world peace and join the effort to stop Russia's invasion of Ukraine, Australia's prime minister said on Monday (March 7), warning that the world was in danger of being reshaped by an "arc of autocracy".

Scott Morrison (pic) also suggested in a wide-ranging speech that Russia's invasion was not going according to the plan of its leader, Vladimir Putin, who he said had "overestimated the capacity of how he might be able to prosecute this illegal war".
