ICBC, China CITIC Bank and most other Chinese banks have made similar moves, worried about falling foul of Western sanctions, which have been stepped up to choke off the funding for Putin's full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

Earlier this month, the U.S. and other countries unveiled a new wave of sanctions that targeted Russian financial institutions and entities and individuals who do business with them.

"If the war were to end, the Russian economy would come to a sudden stop, leading to a crisis, if preparations for the next war were not made," he continued.

Meanwhile, President Joe Biden's Executive Order 14114, which was issued in December, creates a new risk of secondary sanctions for Chinese financial institutions.

Not when they are going through the People’s Liberation Army banks, which are already sanctioned due to the Uiyguar situation.

Lol..

The sanctions basically backfired and helped Russia and countries such as India.

NATO countries came out with the short end of the stick.

Great plan.

Force the Russians into an economic corner.

That is exactly what we did with the Japanese prior to Pearl Harbor.

How many American lives did we lose in the Pacific in that war?

Neocon war games are sick.

Same old regurgitated propaganda that we've heard for more than two years, all while Russia's economic growth surpasses our own.

Reality:

MOSCOW, May 17 (Reuters) - Russia's gross domestic product (GDP) rose by 5.4% year-on-year in the first quarter after growing 4.9% in the fourth quarter of 2023, the state statistics service said on Friday.
