Western countries have recently launched a "financial nuclear bomb" against Russia, trying to bring Russia to its knees through strong financial sanctions, but to their surprise, Russia did not fall because of this. What is even more surprising is that the EU sanctions also involve three Chinese companies, which has sparked a discussion about whether the West is aware of China's actual influence on Russia. This article will examine the complex relationship behind Western sanctions against Russia, and China's role in them.
Recently, EU member states adopted a series of sanctions against Russia, but this time they targeted not only Russia, but also several Chinese companies. This begs the question, is the EU aware of China's importance in relation to Russia, or are they just an afterthought? It can be seen that for the EU, they did not consider that China could become a supporter of Russia when they imposed sanctions on Russia before, so the sanctions were extended to Chinese companies. This also reflects a certain mistake in the West's foreign policymaking.
However, China's support for Russia did not happen overnight, but was built on the basis of long-term friendly cooperation between the two countries. Due to the "unlimited" friendly relations between China and Russia, China's support in this Russia-Ukraine war is not unexpected. It is worth noting that under Western sanctions, Chinese goods have filled the gap in the market, and not just provided ** assistance. As an important supplier of high-tech products to Russia, China plays an important role in the field of electronic components and semiconductors, which is crucial for Russia's defense industry.
China's neutral stance on Russia raises questions about why China is so fully supportive of Russia. The friendly and cooperative relationship between the leaders of China and Russia dates back a long time, and China's support for Russia today is not just about aid, but also about the economic and security interests of both countries. Especially in the field of oil and gas ** and high-tech cooperation, the cooperation between China and Russia is gaining momentum.
As an important partner of Russia, China has actively filled the economic gap caused by Western sanctions, and this strong support has largely supported the Russian economy and enabled it to resist Western pressure tenaciously. It can be said that China's support is one of the important reasons why Russia has been able to stand tall in the face of external sanctions.
China maintains normal exchanges with Russia with a neutral attitude, which not only provides important economic support for Russia, but also helps Russia stabilize its defense industry to a certain extent. China's support behind it not only reflects the solid foundation of cooperation between the two countries, but also demonstrates China's wisdom and wisdom in handling international affairs. Just as China pursues the "rule by inaction" approach, in supporting Russia, China has maintained neutrality and defended its own interests, while also upholding international fairness and justice.
To sum up, China has always adhered to its commitments, always maintained neutrality in the conflict between Russia and the West, and provided strong support to Russia through normal exchanges. This quiet, but practical and efficient approach demonstrates China's wisdom and self-confidence in international affairs, and once again highlights China's status and responsibility as a major country.
