Yang Xu, senior fellow at the Institute of International Relations of the People's Republic of China, stressed that the G20 is not a US-only platform.
“The G20 includes many developing countries that do not dance to the tune of Washington,” he said.
The authors of the article, Cheng Qingqing and Wang Henyi, advise the US to stop fantasizing about turning the G20 Foreign Ministers meeting in Indonesia into an anti-Russian and anti-Chinese platform, as they did at the G7 summit.
“Developing countries in the G20 are interested in discussing issues such as economic instability and the food crisis, rather than trying to divide the world by creating new geopolitical conflicts,” the authors of the article noted.
Earlier, Foreign Minister Wang Yi, a member of the State Council of China, said that some countries are using the crisis in Ukraine to impose illegal unilateral sanctions against China and other countries.
Chinese President Xi Jinping, as part of his speech at the BRICS summit, called on countries to fight against unilateral sanctions.
