“We are against unilateral sanctions and do not intend to pursue a policy aimed at forming blocs and intensifying confrontation,” TASS quoted Xi Jinping as saying.
According to him, "China supports any effort to resolve the crisis and will not follow double standards."
Chinese Deputy Foreign Minister Le Yucheng said that China will strengthen strategic cooperation with Russia, regardless of changes in the situation in the international space.
At the State Department, the US has previously threatened China with consequences from Washington and its allies if Russia helps to circumvent sanctions or military supplies.
Prior to this, the Chinese Foreign Ministry reminded that Beijing is not a party to the conflict in Ukraine.
