\nRecently, some politicians and media outlets in the US have repeatedly concocted and spread disinformation in order to smear and defame China over the Ukraine issue.
\nThe practice of fabricating rumors to shift the blame has been proven despicable and futile by facts. Such acts can\u2019t cover up America\u2019s responsibility for the Ukraine crisis. Instead, they have further exposed the country\u2019s dangerous intention of stirring up trouble and plunging the world into chaos.
\nThe evolution of the Ukraine issue is something China does not want to see. As a permanent member of the United Nations (UN) Security Council, China always adopts an objective, fair, and responsible attitude toward global events, makes judgments and takes its stand independently based on the merits of the matter itself.
\nThere is a complex historical background and context behind the Ukraine issue, which needs to be solved with a cool head and a rational mind.
\nChina believes that to resolve the current crisis, countries must uphold the purposes and principles of the UN Charter and respect and protect the sovereignty and territorial integrity of all countries, adhere to the principle of indivisible security and accommodate the legitimate security concerns of the parties involved,\u2002settle disputes by peaceful means through dialogue and negotiation, and keep in mind\u2002the long-term peace and stability of the region and put in place a balanced, effective and sustainable European security architecture.
\nChina\u2019s stance on the Ukraine issue is open and straightforward, and its suggestions for resolving the Ukraine crisis positive and constructive.
\nAt the moment, the top priority in resolving the Ukraine crisis is to promote peace talks, rather than adding fuel to the flames of tensions between Ukraine and Russia.
\nChina stands, as always, on the side of peace, cooperation, fairness, and justice, supports any endeavor that helps ease the tense situation and bring a political solution to the crisis, and opposes any action that goes against diplomatic settlement of the issue and escalates the tensions.
\nChina has maintained close communication with relevant parties and made efforts to facilitate peace talks. It is ready to continue playing a constructive role in promoting peace talks between Russia and Ukraine and work alongside with the international community to carry out necessary mediation when needed.
\nChina has responded to the Ukraine issue in a responsible way. What it has done to help resolve the crisis has truly demonstrated the sense of responsibility a major country is supposed to have.
\nIn contrast, certain country attempts to create a crisis, benefit from the crisis, and shift its burden of crises onto others, which will only harm both itself and others.
\nChina does not agree to the idea of resolving the Ukraine issue with sanctions and opposes unilateral sanctions that lack the basis of international law.
\nSanctions have never been an effective approach to solving problems, but only cause serious difficulty for the economy and people\u2019s livelihood in countries concerned and worsen division and confrontation.
\nHistory has long proven that sanctions not only result in an economic situation where multiple players lose, but disrupt the process of political settlement.
\nAccording to data released by the US Treasury Department, the number of sanctions imposed by the U.S has climbed 10 times during the past two decades, and the last U.S. President Donald Trump has imposed 3,800 sanctions during his presidency, which means the administration wielded the big stick of sanctions about three times a day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
