(ANSA) - BEIJING, MARCH 07 - Beijing "has not supplied arms to either side of the Ukrainian conflict. China is not the architect of the crisis, nor a directly interested party. Why then threaten sanctions against China? It is absolutely not acceptable
" .
The new foreign minister, QinGang, in his first briefing with the media on the sidelines of the annual parliamentary work, alluded to an "invisible hand" that seems to be supporting a protracted crisis.
"It is a tragedy that could have been avoided: China chooses peace over war, dialogue over sanctions" and de-escalation over escalation", Qin further noted on the conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
If the United States does not "hold the brakes and continue on the wrong path, there will certainly be conflicts and clashes. Who will bear the catastrophic consequences?"
This is QinGang's warning, for which "containment and repression will not make America great and will not stop China's renewal".
Qi returned to the balloon that recently transited US territory (as an "unexpected accident") and shot down.
The US "acted with a presumption of guilt, overreacted, abused force and dramatized the incident," he added.
