The US has reached out to China over its support for Russia - what was said.
The US ambassador to NATO, Matthew Whitaker, expressed concern about China's support for the Russian regime and the Kremlin's military actions in Ukraine. He called on Beijing to stop 'subsidizing the war' in Ukraine.
China may become a target of sanctions
Whitaker stated that if China does not cease 'subsidizing the war', it may become a target of sanctions from US President Donald Trump. He warned that the White House would impose secondary tariffs on countries purchasing energy resources from Russia if the Kremlin does not agree to a peace treaty in the coming weeks.
We see in some statements from the Chinese government a desire to intervene in the war between the US and its allies so that we cannot focus on other strategic objectives. I believe China is mistaken. They should be condemned for financing these military conflicts occurring on Ukrainian territory.
NATO’s commander in Europe, General Alex Grinkevich, warned that European countries and the US should be prepared for a possible war with China and Russia. It was also reported that China's leader Xi Jinping plans to hold a meeting with Trump and Russian President Putin.
In response to China's support for the Russian regime and military actions in Ukraine, the US ambassador to NATO urged Beijing to stop 'subsidizing the war', otherwise China may become a target of US sanctions.
