China opposes US sanctions against Chinese companies that help Russia in the war in Ukraine - Financial Post

Beijing has said it will take the necessary measures to protect the rights and interests of Chinese businesses.

China's Ministry of Commerce called Washington's actions "typical unilateral sanctions" that could disrupt the global trade order and affect the stability of industrial and logistics chains.

On Friday, the USA announced the introduction of sanctions against hundreds of companies in the Russian Federation, Europe, Asia and the Middle East. These companies are accused of supporting Russia's military actions and helping to circumvent sanctions. The US State Department expressed concern over the "scale of dual-purpose goods exports" from China to the Russian Federation.
