CCTV News: According to the Ministry of Commerce website, a spokesperson for the Ministry of Commerce answered questions from reporters on the list of the 16th round of sanctions against Russia in the EU.
Q: On February 24, the EU announced that it would include some Chinese companies and individuals on the list in the 16th round of sanctions against Russia. What is China’s comment on this?
A: China has always opposed unilateral sanctions without the basis of international law and without the authorization of the UN Security Council. It has expressed strong dissatisfaction with the EU's unreasonable sanctions on Chinese companies and individuals many times and firmly opposes it. The European side's actions violate the spirit of the consensus of China-Europe leaders and have a negative impact on China-Europe economic and trade relations. China has always believed that dialogue and negotiation is the only feasible way to resolve the Ukrainian crisis, and has always insisted on persuading peace and promoting talks. We urge the European side to stop listing Chinese companies and stop slandering and slandering and slandering China. China will take necessary measures to resolutely safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese enterprises.
