In February 2022, the United States began to send a red flag to Ukraine, claiming that Russia is likely to officially launch military operations against Ukraine, at the time of this news release, Russia has actually deployed a lot of combat units in the border area of the two countries, the strength of the troops reached about 150,000 people, the UNITED NATO countries think that Russia will be afraid, but did not expect Putin to take the initiative to attack, so that the situation between Russia and Ukraine is completely reversed, when the situation in Ukraine is getting more and more serious, US Secretary of State Blinken called China, there are two things to ask for, But it was not allowed.
The situation in Russia and Ukraine is becoming increasingly tense
Analysts said that the United States believes that Russia's economy is not good, so even in the Russian-Ukrainian border layout, there will be no real war, so they dare to make a big fuss, did not expect Putin is a tough guy, directly went to war, and on February 21, the Russian president officially signed, recognizing the two regions that originally belonged to Ukraine as republics, and recognized their independence, but also signed a cooperation treaty with it, which made the situation between Russia and Ukraine more difficult to reconcile.
Russia's unexpected behavior made the United States very nervous, and immediately joined forces with several other Western countries to launch so-called financial sanctions against Russia, but because many senior Russian officials had no fixed assets in britain and other countries, they could not play the so-called freezing role. Not only that, the Russian side also responded that the sanctions imposed on Russia by Western countries are fundamentally nonsense and have not played any role. Unless the United States dares to send troops to Ukraine to formally compete with Russia, it is impossible to suppress Russia through so-called sanctions.
Blinken turned to China
Perhaps because the situation has gotten out of control, the US secretary of state took the initiative to call the mainland's foreign minister on February 22, during which Blinken said that the United States would not confront China or engage in a new round of Cold War with China, and said that it would continue to adhere to the anti-"Taiwan independence" policy at home, and then hoped that China would use its influence to give the United States some support on the Ukraine issue and stand with them in the united front against Russia.
After Blinken's remarks, Chinese State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi said that China once again called on all parties to exercise restraint, recognize the importance of implementing the principle of indivisibility of security, and ease the situation through dialogue and negotiation to resolve differences. Commentators pointed out that this also shows that our side remains neutral on the Ukraine issue and will not fan the flames like the United States, which is in contrast to the inflammatory behavior of the United States.
