China says it does not want to be impacted by Russia sanctions

Al Jazeera  

Foreign Minister Wang Yi says Beijing is ‘not party’ in the Russia-Ukraine war as pressure grows on it to withdraw Moscow support. China’s foreign minister has told his Spanish counterpart his country does not want to be impacted by Western economic sanctions imposed on Russia following its invasion of Ukraine last month, according to state media. “China is not a party to the crisis, still less wants to be affected by the sanctions,” Wang Yi said, according to a readout of a phone call with Spanish Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares that was published on Tuesday. For his part, Albares wrote on Twitter: “I have talked to my counterpart from China, Wang Yi about the consequences of the war in Ukraine and the means to end it.” The discussion came as pressure grows on China to withdraw support from an increasingly isolated Russia, which has been hit by a series of tough sanctions imposed by the United States and Western allies. The White House, meanwhile, said Sullivan made clear during the “intense” seven-hour meeting that the Biden administration has deep concerns about China’s alignment with Russia at this time.
