China Defends Buying Russian Oil After Trump’s Tariff Threat
China has defended its decision to continue importing Russian oil, despite threats of new tariffs from the United States. The Chinese government has stated that its purchases of Russian energy are justified and necessary to meet its domestic energy needs. This comes after the US imposed secondary sanctions on India for buying oil from Russia, a move that has been seen as an attempt to limit Russia's ability to generate revenue from its energy exports. China has argued that its imports from Russia are not a violation of any international sanctions and are necessary to ensure its energy security. The US has threatened to impose new tariffs on countries that continue to buy Russian oil, but China has made it clear that it will not bow to such pressure and will continue to pursue its energy interests.
