中国外交部：制裁俄罗斯对解决乌克兰危机帮助不大

The Chinese government has been maintaining close contact with all sides in the ongoing Ukrainian crisis. But in some of its strongest words yet on the Ukrainian crisis, China’s Foreign Ministry has criticized this latest imposition of sanctions by the US on Russia.

"Imposing sanctions is not helpful in terms of solving the problem. It will only exacerbate the tension. We call for all parties to continue dialogue and negotiation, and promote a political solution. Imposing sanctions goes against the interests of all parties," said Qin Gang, Spokesman of Chinese Foreign Ministry.
