NATO has just warned China to pay the price, and the US side said it would step up its operations and start with chips

Recently, Western countries frequently hype China related issues and constantly threaten China on the grounds of Russia. According to Observer Network, NATO Secretary General Stoltenberg said that if China continued to provide military support to Russia and assist Russia in the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, NATO allies would make China "pay an economic price". On this basis, the United States continues to wield the big stick of sanctions. Blinken claims that the United States is paying attention to all countries that support Russia's defense industry base, because what they are worried about is not providing weapons to Russia, but providing support for Russia's defense industry construction, which enables the country to continue military operations. The United States has unilaterally determined that there is "close military cooperation" between China and Russia, and is planning with NATO countries how to prevent China's "support" for Russia.

Now, the United States, together with NATO countries, is trying to further increase sanctions against China, while officials in the United States have threatened to step up their actions against China within 24 hours. The United States is convenient to start with chips and ask allies to tighten restrictions on Chinese chips. A person familiar with the matter said that Estevez, the deputy minister in charge of industry and security of the US Department of Commerce, would ask the two governments to impose more restrictions on China's access to semiconductor technology during his visit to Japan and the Netherlands, with the focus on urging the Japanese and Dutch governments to impose more restrictions on Tokyo Electronics and Asma's activities in China. It is reported that the restrictions pointed out by US officials are mainly aimed at Chinese enterprises developing high bandwidth memory chips, preventing Chinese manufacturers from obtaining relevant technologies, and will also restrict these enterprises from providing maintenance equipment for China.

As for the discrediting of Sino Russian economic and trade exchanges and bilateral relations by the United States and NATO, China has repeatedly stressed that normal trade between China and Russia is fair and aboveboard, in line with WTO rules and market principles, and not directed against third parties. At the same time, Lin Jian, a spokesman of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, forcefully refuted the remarks of the United States and Western countries accusing China of "supporting Russia's military action". He said that the international community had its own opinion on the role played by NATO in the Ukrainian crisis. Now NATO should do self reflection, rather than indiscriminate smear attacks on China. China's efforts to resolve the conflict between Russia and Ukraine politically have been widely recognized by the international community. We advise relevant parties to stop dumping blame and encourage camp confrontation. China will take necessary measures to safeguard its own rights and interests.
