U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, during her recent visit to Beijing, issued a stern warning to Chinese companies regarding their involvement with Russia's war efforts in Ukraine. Yellen emphasized that companies "must not provide material support for Russia’s war" and would face "significant consequences" if they do. This stance was further reinforced by the U.S.'s readiness "to sanction Chinese banks" should they aid Russia's military actions. The move underscores the U.S. government's commitment to curbing Russia's war capabilities and its efforts to involve international partners in these sanctions.
