China: Welcome to promote global infrastructure initiative but oppose discredit the Belt and Road words and deeds
Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesman Zhao Lijian said at a regular press conference on Monday that China has always welcomed all initiatives to promote global infrastructure construction."We believe that related initiatives do not have the problem of mutual replacement, but we oppose the banner of infrastructure construction, promote geopolitical calculations, and discredit the words and deeds of the Belt and Road Initiative."
In response to the setting of debt traps in China, Zhao Lijian said that the United States was the true manufacturer of debt trap.He said that the US expansion monetary policy, the lack of regulatory financial innovation, and maliciously short -term behaviors have exacerbated the debt burden of developing countries.
The summit focuses on the Russian and Ukraine War. According to the draft statement obtained by Bloomberg, the G7 will promise to provide support for the Russian army for the Russian army indefinitely.
Bynden urged countries to continue to be united on Sunday.He pointed out that Russian President Putin has always hoped that NATO and G7 will be split, but they will not split.
G7 member states have agreed to prohibit the import of gold from Russia, but analysts believe that this is "largely symbolic" because the previous sanctions have limited gold flow.
According to people familiar with the matter, G7 also discusses Russia's oil prices through implementation measures for insurance and shipping.Such a mechanism will only allow transportation to Russian crude oil and petroleum products that are lower than the agreed threshold.
