U.S. Pressures China and Russia, Singapore's Straits Times Reports That China Should Be Held Responsible for Its Aid to Russia

Xinhua News Agency of Singapore reported today: "As the US government increases pressure on Russia and threatens to impose tariffs if Moscow does not agree to a peace agreement, US Ambassador to NATO Whittaker said that China's assistance to Russia in the Ukraine-Russia war must be exposed and should be held accountable."

Notably, countries that purchase Russian oil include China, India, Brazil, as well as the United States and many European countries. The United States is now bringing up the issue of oil, which actually has multiple considerations: on one hand, it is trying to put pressure on China to increase leverage for the upcoming third round of trade negotiations; on the other hand, it is attempting to create obstacles for Sino-European dialogue and to divide various parties. In fact, the United States is the key player fueling the Ukraine-Russia conflict. Now that the situation is out of control, it wants to shift the blame to China, which is clearly a miscalculation.
