The United States and China did not disappear on Friday at the UN Security Council on the issue of war in Ukraine. The US called on China to stop supporting Russian aggression against Ukraine. Beijing’s representative, in turn, claimed that Washington tried to blame others and to cause disagreements. Reuters informed about it, writes TASR.
The reigning US Ambassador to the UN Dorothy Shea, at the UN Security Council, called on all the countries and especially China to stop exporting the goods to Russia. According to Washington, these products help Russia’s arms industry and allow it to attack drones and missiles in Ukraine.
The statements of diplomats
“Beijing’s claim that has introduced strict control of the export of two -use goods refutes the fact that there are daily components of Chinese production in unmanned aircraft, weapons and vehicles that Russia is using against Ukraine,” said the American diplomat.
Deputy Chinese Ambassador Keng Shuang, in response to Shea’s statements, said that China did not induce the war in Ukraine, not even a party conflict, never provided the fighting countries with weapons and has always strictly controlled dual -use materials, including exports of unmanned aircraft.
The criticism of the West
“We are calling on the US to stop being guilty about Ukraine or to create confrontations and instead play a more constructive role in supporting ceasefire and peace talks,” he said at the meeting of the Shuang Council.
Reuters recalled its Wednesday’s news that engines produced in China end up through the companies with the state -owned drone manufacturer in Russia, referring to “industrial cooling units” to avoid revealing under Western sanctions regime.
China claims that it is in conflict in Ukraine by a neutral party, but the West criticizes it for not condemning Russia for its invasion. Since the beginning of the war, Moscow and Beijing have intensified the strategic partnership.
