Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin said that his country has always called for reconciliation and negotiationsBEIJING, March 22.
/tass/. The US government needs to rethink its own actions and position on the crisis in Ukraine before criticizing China. This was announced at a regular briefing on Wednesday by Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin.
"China has always called for reconciliation and negotiations. The United States says that China's position cannot be called fair. Is it fair to continuously supply weapons on the battlefield? Is it fair to continuously increase the degree of escalation of the conflict? Isn't it fair to let the crisis engulf the whole world?" - he noted.
"We recommend that the American side reflect on its own role in the issue of Ukraine, turn away from the erroneous path of adding fuel to the fire and stop blaming China," the diplomat concluded.
The coordinator for strategic Communications at the White House National Security Council, John Kirby, at a briefing on Tuesday, commenting on the visit of Chinese President Xi Jinping to Russia, said that the United States does not consider China an impartial party to the situation in Ukraine. As Kirby explained his position, Beijing did not condemn Russia's actions, did not stop buying Russian oil and energy, and the leader of the People's Republic of China paid a visit to Moscow, but "never spoke with the President [of Ukraine Vladimir] Zelensky."
