Crisis in Ukraine 'has sounded the alarm for humanity' and countries will face security hardships if they expand military alliances says Chinese President Xi Jinping as fighting between Ukraine and Russia rolls into 120th day Follow our live coverage: 👇
A man stands by a barricade made with destroyed police cars in Lysychansk on June 21, 2022, as Ukraine says Russian shelling has caused"catastrophic destruction" in the eastern industrial city, which lies just across a river from Severodonetsk, where Russian and Ukrainian troops have been locked in battle for weeks.
“The Ukraine crisis has again sounded the alarm for humanity. Countries will surely end up in security hardships if they place blind faith in their positions of strength, expand military alliances, and seek their own safety at the expense of others," the official Xinhua News Agency quoted Xi as saying.
In other comments, Xi said imposing sanctions could act as a “boomerang” and a “double-edged sword,” and that the global community would suffer from “politicising, mechanising and weaponising” global economic trends and financial flows.
