The war goes beyond Ukraine: China is watching, but it does not convey the weapon of the Russian Federation - the White House

US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken said China was watching Washington's reaction to the war in Ukraine. The Russian invasion affects both Europe but also in Asia. China is still refrained from the provision of weapons of Russia. This was stated by US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken, Reuters writes. "While we are talking today, we have not seen them cross this border," the official.

According to him, Russia could not be impunctly attacking its neighbor, as it will "open a box of Pandora" and give a signal to other potential aggressors, the number of military conflicts in the world will increase. "The rates in Ukraine go far beyond Ukraine . . . I think it has a deep effect, for example, Asia," Blinken said. He also noted that in this region, the main allies of Ukraine are Japan and South Korea. However, China watches the United States carefully watches the war.

Beijing can give it a lesson. In addition, Blinken later stated that the Russian invasion had caused disputes about how the war would affect China's military thinking about Taiwan. Moreover, in his opinion, Russia is a "junior partner" in relations with the PRC. He said political and material support for Russia's China contradicts Washington's interests. Therefore, according to Blinken, it is necessary to increase the budget by 11% to confront the threats that come from the Russian Federation.
