5. The EU's 15th round of sanctions against Russia includes Chinese companies and individuals in the list. The Ministry of Commerce: Necessary measures will be taken to resolutely safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese companies

The European Union announced the 15th round of sanctions against Russia, and for the first time included Chinese companies and individuals in the "comprehensive sanctions" list. The Ministry of Commerce responded: The EU ignored China's repeated negotiations and opposition and insisted on including some Chinese companies and individuals in the "comprehensive sanctions" list in the 15th round of sanctions against Russia. China is strongly dissatisfied with this and firmly opposes it. China has always opposed unilateral sanctions without international legal basis and authorization by the UN Security Council. The EU's approach is contrary to the spirit of the consensus reached by the leaders of China and Europe and has a negative impact on China-EU economic and trade relations. China urges the EU to immediately stop the wrong practice of listing Chinese companies and stop damaging the legitimate interests of Chinese companies from the perspective of maintaining the overall situation of the China-EU comprehensive strategic partnership and ensuring the stability of the global industrial chain and supply chain. China will take necessary measures to firmly safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese companies. (Jinshi Data APP)
