Diplomatic circles in Brussels said: "The inclusion of China in the "coalition of the willing" could potentially strengthen Russia's agreement to the presence of peacekeeping forces in Ukraine." In any case, the issue is "sensitive."

China is talking about invading Ukraine on behalf of Russia.

This claim appears to contradict the OP

They're trying to force a Ukrainian surrender with lots of concessions. The Chinese peacekeepers would basically be occupying the border sort of like an Eastern NATO as a method of dissuading Ukraine joining the Actual NATO or possibly even EU.

Coalition of the willing here is reference to EU peace keepers is my reading.

If China is demploying on russian side this rhetoric makes no sense. Since that would be similar to calling a cop... You had Russia problem now you got two problems China and Russia.
