While Putin was hosted by Xi yesterday, China also took the opportunity to hit back at the US which alleges Beijing is aiding Russia in its war on Ukraine. On the streets of Beijing, Chinese people had varying views on Putin's visit and China's relationship with Russia.
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin accused the US of being "hypocritical and irresponsible" for accusing China of exporting dual-use materials that could help Russia's weapon production. One woman said she didn’t think closer relations with Russia was a “good thing”. But others were hopeful that relations would remain friendly and “cooperative”.
Speaking at a daily press conference on Thursday afternoon, Wang insisted that China handles the export of military products "in a prudent and responsible way".
He added blaming China will "not end the crisis, nor will it get the US out of its tricky situation".
"What has happened shows that those who fuel the flames will only get bogged down deeper and deeper in it, and political settlement is the only right way forward to end the Ukraine crisis," he said.
