Скачать или смотреть China reacts to Russian Ukraine war! It could break US sanctions against Russia. Turning the tide?

After Russia attacks Ukraine, China’s stance in this crisis has been a big talking point in the international society.

At the Chinese Foreign Ministry's regular press conference, the war between Russia and Ukraine remains a hot topic. Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin said, 'Sanctions are never an effective way to solve problems, but they will cause serious problems for the countries and regions concerned.' In addition, he stressed that Ukraine is a sovereign state.

Battle between Russia and Ukraine has caused tens of thousands of people to flee their homes. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky vowed to stay in the capital, Kiev. He wrote on Twitter that "we need an anti-war coalition. " Europe and the United States have stepped up sanctions against Russia, and urge China to do the same.

The United States and other NATO members have provided military aid to Ukraine, but have so far refrained from sending troops for fear of sparking a wider European conflict. News of heavy fighting on multiple fronts poured in,
The UN Security Council voted on Friday on a draft resolution condemning the Russian incursion and demanding an immediate withdrawal of troops. The draft was vetoed by Russia.
Zhang Jun, China's ambassador to the UN, told the General Assembly, "The Cold War has long since ended. The cold War mentality based on blocs should be abandoned. It will do no good to provoke a new cold War. "

The Chinese side indicated that "China and Russia will continue normal trade cooperation."

Zhang said, "All parties concerned should exercise necessary restraint to prevent further deterioration of the situation and at the same time step up diplomatic efforts to promote a political settlement."

He said, "The Cold War has long since ended, and the cold War mentality based on block-based confrontation should be abandoned. Provoking a new cold War will do no good."

Zhang reiterated that China does not approve of any action that may exacerbate tensions and supports relevant UN agencies in continuing humanitarian assistance work in Ukraine.

Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin on Monday called on both sides to "keep calm, exercise restraint and avoid further escalation".

China says it understands Russia's legitimate demands on security, as well as Moscow's dissatisfaction with NATO.

The European Union, the United States and other countries have announced to exclude some Russian banks from some international settlement systems, and China's Foreign Ministry said it would carry out normal trade cooperation. China does not support the use of sanctions to solve problems, still less opposes unilateral sanctions that have no basis in international law. China and Russia will continue to carry out normal trade cooperation in the spirit of mutual respect, equality and mutual benefit.

The United States, the European Union, the United Kingdom, Canada and other western countries have decided to ban a number of Russian banks from the Association for Global Banking and Financial Telecommunication international Settlement system in order to sanction Russia's invasion of Ukraine. It appears China will continue to trade with Russia, and it is worth noting that president Biden also indicated U.S. will need to reduce the impact of Russia-Ukraine conflict to domestic petrol price and inflation, he also pointed out for that reason some trade with Russia will continue.
