China’s ambassador to the U.S. tried to walk back his country’s declaration of a “no limits” partnership with Russia, saying China isn't interested in “confrontation.' He refused to call Russia’s war on Ukraine an invasion but as a “crisis.”
Ambassador Qin Gang's comments come as China continues its tightrope walk regarding Russia’s attack in Ukraine — refusing to condemn Moscow while maintaining trade with its neighbor — adding an additional layer to the already tense U.S.-Chinese relations.
