Beijing residents shared their opinion about the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine. "We cannot deny is that it is an invasion, but on the other hand, it also caters to the demands of many local people," said Zhu Jiangxu, working distributing pamphlets on the street. "I think it's better to solve the problem through dialogue." another Beijing resident said. Protesters turned out in cities around the world on Thursday in solidarity with Ukraine against Russian President Vladimir Putin's decision to invade Ukraine. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
