West's hypocrisy paraded for public consumption: China Daily editorial

China Daily  

This file photo taken on March 1, 2023 shows European Union flags flying outside the European Commission headquarters in Brussels, Belgium. To better explain to Kyiv as well as their own people why their "generous assistance" had not yet materialized into Ukraine's victory, or even progress on the ground, after so many Ukrainian lives have been lost, the G7 leaders have tried to pass the buck to third parties. Apart from the Democratic People's Republic of Korea and Iran, which were as before criticized for their support of Russia in the document issued by the G7 leaders to mark the second anniversary of the outbreak of the conflict, China notably appeared for the first time as a cause for "concern", due to its alleged material support for Russia. "We express our concern about transfers to Russia from businesses in the People's Republic of China of dual-use materials and components for weapons and equipment for military production," the document reads. The West's price capping of Russia's oil exports, aimed at reducing Moscow's energy income, has actually contributed to the tremendous profits India has been making through its buying low and selling high of Russian oil.
