Ukrainian war

A spokesman for the Kremlin said that Russia did not seek military assistance from China.Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian also said that the United States has recently spread false information on China on the Ukrainian issue.

(Washington Composite Electric) Western media reported that Russia requested China to provide military equipment to support the invasion of Ukraine, but both China and Russia denied that there was a matter.The United States warns that China will face consequences if they assist Russia to avoid sanctions.

The Washington Post Financial Times and other media quoted unnamed US officials Sunday, stating that Russia requested China to provide military equipment and other aid after invading Ukraine.Relevant officials did not disclose the types of equipment required by Russia, and also refused to discuss China's response to these requirements.

According to the New York Times, Russia also requires China to provide additional economic assistance to offset the impact of extensive sanctions on Western and Asian countries on Russia's economy.

Russian Treasurer Silu Anov stated on the same day that he hopes to get China help in response to economic sanctions.He pointed out that the West is strengthening pressure on China to prevent Russia from using RMB foreign exchange reserves and restricting Sino -Russian bilateral trade. "But I think that our partnership with China allows us to maintain existing cooperation.It may even increase. "

The United States is observing whether China provides material or economic support to Russia.National Security Consultant Shaliwen told the United States CNN on Sunday: "We are directly stated to Beijing that it will definitely cause consequences to assist or support Russia's large -scale avoidance of sanctions."Yang Jiechi, member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and director of the Central Foreign Affairs Working Committee at the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee on Monday, is the first high -level talks about China and the United States since Russia invaded Ukraine.

Bloomberg pointed out that Russia's help shows that its invasion has encountered more obstacles than expected.If China provides weapons to Russia, Chinese companies will suffer severe sanctions, and Sino -US trade tensions will be further upgraded.However, there is no sign of the war that Beijing hopes to extend this heavy financial and energy market.

China: Western media rumor

China and Russia have denied reports.The Kremlin spokesman Peskov said on Monday that Russia did not seek military assistance from China and said that Russia has enough military power to be able to achieve all the goals in Ukraine on time.

Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesman Zhao Lijian was asked at a regular press conference on Monday that the incident said that the United States has recently spread false information on China on the Ukrainian issue.

He emphasized that China's position on the Ukrainian issue has always been consistent and clear, and has always played a constructive role for persuasion and talks.The purpose is to pass on contradictions, provoke confrontation, and take advantage of the opportunity to gain profit, which is neither responsible or moral. "

He reiterated that sanctions have never been an effective way to solve problems. China opposes any form of unilateral sanctions and long -arm jurisdictions in any form of the United States.
