China's support for Russia must end, says Blinken
On Tuesday, Antony Blinken and Jens Stoltenberg held a press conference in Washington. The US Secretary of State declared that China's support for Russia's war effort, particularly its military-industrial sector, "must end."
The head of American diplomacy said that "Chinese aid has allowed Russia to maintain its military-industrial base, support the war effort, and prolong the war against Ukraine." He emphasized, "And this must end."
NATO is concerned about potential Russian aid to North Korea and support for its nuclear program and missile-building program, indicated the Alliance's Secretary General.
Strong support for Russia from China. Stoltenberg speaks out
In an interview published Monday evening with the BBC, Stoltenberg also asserted that China should be held accountable for supporting Russia in the war against Ukraine and explained that in NATO, "discussions are ongoing" about possible sanctions against Beijing, considering, for example, economic restrictions.
US President Joe Biden mentioned during the G7 summit in Italy that although China does not supply Russia with weapons, it does provide technologies for their production.
