China criticized the new US sanctions against Russia, stating it reserves the right to protect its economic interests.
President Donald Trump signed a new sanctions law targeting Russia, a move described by some as "sanctions from hell." The legislation grants the president broad authority to impose restrictions, though it also allows him to waive them within 30 days. Moscow has warned the action could impede peace efforts in Ukraine.
Beijing has expressed opposition to the unilateral sanctions, stating it reserves the right to take necessary measures to protect its interests. As Russia's largest oil buyer, China's stance carries significant weight in the geopolitical landscape surrounding the sanctions.
