According to a message on the website of the Ministry of Commerce on July 21, the spokesperson for the Ministry of Commerce responded to questions from reporters regarding the listing of Chinese enterprises and financial institutions by the EU in the 18th round of sanctions against Russia.
Question: On July 18, the EU announced that it had included some Chinese enterprises and financial institutions in the list in the 18th round of sanctions against Russia. What is China's comment on this?
Answer: The EU has ignored repeated consultations and opposition from China, and continued to include some Chinese enterprises in the list in the 18th round of sanctions against Russia, and has imposed sanctions on two Chinese financial institutions with "fabricated" charges. China is strongly dissatisfied and firmly opposes this. China has always opposed unilateral sanctions without legal basis under international law and without authorization from the UN Security Council. The EU's approach violates the spirit of the consensus between China and the EU, and has caused serious negative impacts on Sino-EU economic and trade relations and financial cooperation. China urges the EU to immediately stop the wrong practice of listing Chinese enterprises and financial institutions. China will take necessary measures to resolutely safeguard the legitimate and proper rights and interests of Chinese enterprises and financial institutions.
