China will suffer critical consequences if it provides military assistance to Russia. So said Republican US Senator Lindsey Graham.
The politician urged recognizing Russia as a state sponsor of terrorism as soon as possible in accordance with US law. This would make it difficult for China to supply arms to Moscow and impose sanctions on the country. It is necessary to demonstrate to the whole world that any country that comes to the aid of the Russian Federation will pay a heavy price.
Graham said Russian military support would be like buying a ticket to the Titanic after the film’s ending is known.
“In my opinion, the most catastrophic thing that can happen to US-China relations is for China to supply deadly weapons to Putin and his crimes against humanity. That would change everything forever,” ABC quotes the senator.
Earlier, The New York Times wrote that Beijing could turn the military conflict in Ukraine into a real world war. Since the Asian republic has an interest in Washington exhausting all its arms stocks.
