Ministry of Commerce website, October 27 message, the spokesperson for the Ministry of Commerce answered questions from reporters on the UK's sanctions against Chinese companies.
Question: On October 15, the UK Foreign Office announced a new round of sanctions related to Russia, among which 11 Chinese companies were sanctioned. What is China's comment on this?
Answer: China firmly opposes the UK's practice of listing 11 Chinese companies under the pretext of Russia-related issues. On the issue of the Ukraine crisis, China has always strictly controlled the export of dual-use items in accordance with laws and regulations. Normal business cooperation between Chinese and Russian enterprises should not be disturbed or affected. The UK's action is a unilateral sanction without basis in international law or United Nations authorization. The UK ignored China's negotiations and the positive momentum of the development of Sino-British economic and trade relations, and insisted on listing Chinese companies, which has had a negative impact on Sino-British economic and trade relations. China urges the UK to take a comprehensive view of Sino-British economic and trade cooperation and immediately correct its wrong practices, revoking the sanctions against relevant Chinese entities. China will resolutely safeguard the legitimate and proper rights and interests of Chinese enterprises.
