According to Reuters, on October 17 local time, the US announced sanctions against two Chinese companies involved in manufacturing and transporting attack drones and a Russian-affiliated company, and warned the two countries to stop cooperating to help the war in Ukraine. US State Department spokesman Matthew Miller declared, “Although the US has previously imposed sanctions on Chinese entities that provide key inputs to Russia's military infrastructure, this is the first time that the US has imposed sanctions on a Chinese entity cooperating with a Russian company to directly develop and produce complete weapon systems.” At the regular press conference of the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs held on October 18, Foreign Ministry Spokesman Mao Ning said in response to a question from foreign media reporters “What comments does the spokesperson have on this” that China resolutely opposes the imposition of illegal unilateral sanctions by the US side on Chinese companies and will never accept baseless accusations and pressure from the US side. Mao Ning further stated that what I want to emphasize is that China is not the creator or party to the Ukrainian crisis; it has always insisted on promoting peace and talks, and has played a constructive role in promoting a political settlement. China has never provided lethal weapons to any party to the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, strictly controlled dual-use items, including drone exports, and opposed the use of civilian drones for military purposes. We urge the US side to immediately stop using the Ukraine issue to discredit and pressure China and misuse illegal unilateral sanctions and long-arm jurisdiction on Chinese entities and individuals. China will take all necessary measures to resolutely safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese enterprises and citizens.
