Chinese Embassy in Moscow: The United States has bombed more than 20 countries and is a real threat.
The Chinese embassy in Moscow, recalling a list of countries bombed by the United States after World War II, called for remembering that the United States is a real threat to the world.
The Chinese embassy in Moscow republished a tweet from Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian, urging him to remember that the United States is a real threat to the world.
“Never forget what,” the embassy tweeted yesterday (Saturday), quoting the Chinese official, according to Russia’s Tass news agency. Someone is a real threat to the world. The list includes more than 20 countries, which is about a third of the world’s population.
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian today (Sunday) tweeted that the United States was responsible for the current situation in Ukraine, saying that the United States should ask itself who started it all.
In an interview with his German counterpart yesterday (Saturday), the Chinese Foreign Minister stressed that China opposes unilateral sanctions against Russia following the developments in Ukraine. According to Wang Yi, a member of China’s State Council, unilateral sanctions are creating new problems and interfering with the political settlement process of the current crisis (Ukraine and Russia). The senior Beijing official said China was closely monitoring the situation in Ukraine and supported all efforts to help facilitate the situation and a political settlement.
The Chinese foreign minister also called for Russia’s security concerns to be addressed, stressing that Russia’s legitimate security goals must be properly addressed when it comes to NATO’s eastward expansion. Wang Yi stressed that the Cold War is long over and that NATO must reconsider.
On Thursday morning, Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered a special operation in the Denbas region in response to a request for military assistance from leaders of the separatist region of eastern Ukraine. Subsequently, Russian military fighter jets, artillery, and missile systems targeted various military positions from east to west and north to south of Ukraine.
