The Chinese authorities will take response measures in connection with the 19th package of anti-Russian sanctions of the EU that infringe on interests of China and undermine global energy security, the Ministry of Commerce said.
"Actions of the EU run counter to the spirit of consensus reached between Chinese and European leaders, inflict serious damage to the overall situation in trade and economic cooperation between China and the European Union, and hit global energy security," the ministry said. "China will take required measures, will decisively protect legitimate rights and interests of national companies, and firmly stand for its energy security and economic development," the ministry added.

The European Union has sanctioned two mainland Chinese oil refineries and one Hong Kong-based oil trader as part of its latest efforts to hobble Russia’s war economy, drawing a stern rebuke from Beijing.
ReplyDeleteThe companies were listed in a broader package of sanctions agreed by the EU’s 27 member states on Thursday morning, punishing in total 15 mainland Chinese or Hong Kong-registered entities over what Brussels considers illicit trade with Russia.
China’s foreign ministry hit back immediately, reiterating its stance that it “has never provided lethal weapons to any party to the conflict and exercises strict export control over dual-use articles”.
China expresa una rotunda protesta contra la decisión de la UE de incluir a 12 empresas chinas en el nuevo paquete de sanciones antirrusas
ReplyDelete"China no inició la crisis ucraniana ni es parte de ella. Siempre hemos impulsado la paz y las negociaciones, y no suministramos armas letales a ninguna de las partes del conflicto", declaró el portavoz del ministerio de Exteriores chino, Guo Jiakun, criticando la decisión de la UE de imponer restricciones unilaterales contra 12 empresas chinas bajo el pretexto de mantener vínculos con Rusia.
El diplomático indicó que "la parte europea no tiene ningún derecho a criticar la interacción y cooperación normal entre empresas chinas y rusas".
"[Pekín] exige a la UE que deje de usar a China como excusa y de perjudicar los intereses del país. Esto daña el desarrollo sano y estable de las relaciones chino-europeas", agregó Jiakun, prometiendo que el país asiático tomará todas las medidas necesarias para "proteger sus legítimos intereses".
