Russia: China

Question

To ask Her Majesty's Government what assessment they have made, if any, of the value of the economic support provided to Russia by Chinese state-owned enterprises.

Answer

The world is watching what China chooses to say and do in response to Russia's illegal invasion of Ukraine. We have been clear that if China wants to be seen as a responsible global actor, it should take concrete steps to show that it does not support Russia's actions. We continue to engage at all levels to urge China to use its relationship with Russia to contribute to peace and stability, and not to fuel aggression.
