China Rejects Western Sanctions Against Russia

51

China has rejected Western sanctions against Russia. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Beijing argues that sanctions are never the best way to solve problems.

 

The country insists that the parties involved in the conflict over Ukraine resolve their disagreements through dialogue. “They must remain calm and proceed cautiously.”

Earlier this month, China explicitly supported the Russian position that NATO should not be allowed to expand further, for example, Ukraine. However, Beijing said it understands Russia’s concerns about its national security.

But China, which has primary economic interests in the West, has also stressed the need to respect the sovereignty of all nations, including Ukraine.
