WASHINGTON - U.S. Deputy Secretary of State Kurt Campbell met China's Vice Foreign Minister Ma Zhaoxu in Washington on Thursday, a day after accusing China's leadership of supporting Russia's war in Ukraine and warning that Beijing could face further Western sanctions.
He declined to provide details of any future sanctions when asked whether those might target Chinese leaders given Campbell's comments, but added:"If China does not curtail its support for Russia's defense industrial base, the U.S. will be prepared to take further steps." The Biden administration has stepped up warnings about China's support for Russia and issued an executive order in December that threatened sanctions on financial institutions helping Russia skirt Western sanctions.
Last month the U.S. imposed sanctions on 20 companies based in China and Hong Kong, following repeated warnings from Washington about China's support for Russia's military.
