US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken made this statement during discussions with Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi, according to Reuters.
Blinken noted that Chinese aid, particularly the supply of microelectronics and machine tools, has significantly boosted Moscow's military capabilities in its continued war against Ukraine.
He emphasized that Beijing supplies about 70% of the machine tools and 90% of the microelectronics used in the production of Russian missiles, armored vehicles, and ammunition.
"When Beijing says that, on the one hand, it wants peace, it wants to see an end to the conflict, but on the other hand, is allowing its companies to take actions that are actually helping Putin continue the aggression, that doesn't add up," Blinken stressed.
He also urged applying pressure on Iran, North Korea, and China to stop providing military aid to Russia.
It should be noted that despite the criticism, China continues to promote its "peace plan," which includes an immediate ceasefire and halting the supply of weapons to Ukraine—raising concerns within the international community.
On September 24, during a UN Security Council meeting, China reiterated its stance on Russia's war against Ukraine. Beijing urged the international community to prevent the conflict's escalation and stressed the importance of safeguarding nuclear power plants.
Countries like China and Brazil have proposed peace plans, but Ukraine has rejected them as inconsistent with its own approach.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky criticized the peace plans from China and Brazil, calling them "destructive" and pre-coordinated with Moscow. He described the proposals as "political statements" that fail to consider the reality on the ground.
China claims that its six-point "consensus" with Brazil on resolving the "Ukrainian crisis" has received support from over 110 countries.
