China opposes long-arm jurisdiction without a basis in international law or authorization from the United Nations Security Council, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun said on Thursday, pushing back against a U.S. sanctions bill targeting buyers of Russian oil and gas.
The U.S. House of Representatives passed a sanctions bill against Russia Wednesday that would authorize President Donald Trump to impose tariffs of up to 100 percent on major buyers of Russian oil and gas, with potential targets including China.
