China could have “better relations” with the United States or the European Union if Beijing or “some of its companies” stop supplying “critical components” thanks to which Russia can produce more munitions. This is the concept reiterated by the American Secretary of State Antony Blinken, in an interview with the BBC at the end of his visit to China, explaining that among these components there are “machine tools, microelectronics and optics”, essentially technology that can have a civil and military use. “This is helping Russia to perpetuate its aggression against Ukraine, but it is also creating a growing threat to Europe due to Russian aggression,” accused the head of Washington’s diplomacy, according to whom, by doing so, Beijing it is “helping to fuel the greatest threat to (Europe’s) security since the end of the Cold War.” “We have already taken action against the Chinese entities that are involved in this,” he recalled. “And what I say clearly today is that if China doesn’t act, we will.”

Xi, reports the South China Morning Post, invited the United States to be a partner of the Asian giant, urging them not to behave in such a way as to “say one thing and do another”. «This year is the 45th anniversary of the start of diplomatic relations between China and the United States – said Xi, according to CCTV news – the two countries should be partners, not rivals.
They should both achieve success and not harm each other. They should seek common ground, while maintaining differences, instead of arriving at fierce competition. They should keep their word and be firm in their actions, instead of saying one thing and doing another.”
