Yellen threatens sanctions for China banks that aid Russia’s war
Beijing | US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen wrapped up four days of talks in China with a warning to the country’s banks and exporters: If you help bolster Russia’s military capacity, Washington will come after you.
“I stressed that companies, including those in the PRC, must not provide material support for Russia’s war, and that they will face significant consequences if they do,” Ms Yellen said on Monday in prepared remarks for a press conference at the US ambassador’s residence in Beijing, using an abbreviation for the People’s Republic of China.
