Foreign Ministry Responds to US Demand for NATO to Impose Tariffs on China

  On September 15, Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Lin Jian presided over the regular press conference. A reporter asked: Recently, the US has demanded that G7 and NATO member states collectively impose tariffs on China on the grounds of China’s import of Russian oil, urging China to play a role in ending the Russia-Ukraine conflict. What is China’s comment on this?

  Lin Jian stated: The US approach is a typical case of unilateral bullying and economic coercion. China’s position on the Ukraine crisis has been consistent and clear. Dialogue and negotiation are the only viable way to resolve the Ukraine crisis.

  From the first day of the crisis, China has maintained an objective and fair stance, persistently advocating for peace and promoting talks. China firmly opposes the abusive imposition of illegal unilateral sanctions and long-arm jurisdiction against China. If China’s legitimate rights and interests are harmed, China will resolutely retaliate and firmly safeguard its sovereignty, security, and development interests.
