I have seen other statements.

> Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi deplored the conflict between Ukraine and Russia, calling it a “war” and saying that he is “extremely concerned” about the harm to civilians, his office said in a statement following a call with his Ukrainian counterpart, Dmytro Kuleba.

Unfortunately I think it's a mistranslation.

None of the Chinese language media reports him calling it a "war", but instead only a "conflict".

Official source disclosing the same call: http://www.gov.cn/guowuyuan/2022-03/01/content_5676356.htm

No longer, today they said they'll work for peace and condemn the violence.

Nope, as of 7 hours ago China merely "regrets" the violence necessitated by the "legitimate national security claims" of Russia.

Do you have a source?
