China offered new humanitarian energy assistance to Ukraine this week \u2014 even as a senior U.S. official said Beijing has the power to stop Russia\u2019s invasion and has chosen not to.<\/p>\n

“China could<\/a> call Vladimir Putin and end this war tomorrow and cut off his dual-purpose technologies that they\u2019re selling,” U.S. Ambassador to NATO Matthew Whitaker said during a Friday panel on U.S. foreign policy at the Munich Security Conference, moderated by Bloomberg.<\/p>\n

“China could stop buying Russian oil and gas,” he added.<\/p>\n

“You know, this war is being completely enabled by China.”<\/p>\n

NATO AMBASSADOR SAYS UKRAINE PEACE DEAL COULD BE ‘ON THE CUSP’ AS NATIONS NEAR FINALIZATION OF SECURITY PACT<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Whitaker\u2019s remarks came as Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi met with Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha on the sidelines of the conference and pledged what both sides described as humanitarian energy assistance to help Ukraine cope with ongoing Russian strikes on its power infrastructure.<\/p>\n

Sybiha said on social media that he was grateful for China\u2019s decision to provide an additional energy aid package. Readouts from both Kyiv, Ukraine, and Beijing described the meeting as focused on peace efforts, bilateral ties and support for Ukraine\u2019s energy system, which repeatedly has been targeted by Russian missile and drone attacks.<\/p>\n

China has not publicly disclosed the size or scope of the aid package.<\/p>\n

Beijing repeatedly has said it seeks a “constructive” role in ending the crisis and maintains that it is not a party to the conflict. Chinese officials have denied supplying lethal military assistance to Moscow and argue they support dialogue and a political settlement.<\/p>\n

U.S. officials, however, increasingly frame China as Russia\u2019s most important external enabler.<\/p>\n

Whitaker said in Munich that China is providing “crucial support” for Russia\u2019s aggression<\/a>. Russia relies heavily on China for critical parts and components used in drones and other war equipment, Western officials say, even as Beijing publicly distances itself from direct weapons transfers.<\/p>\n

ZELENSKYY CLAIMS US GAVE UKRAINE AND RUSSIA A DEADLINE TO REACH PEACE AGREEMENT<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

China and Russia have deepened their partnership since the start of the war, expanding trade and financial cooperation. Moscow increasingly has relied on Chinese technology, industrial goods and financial channels as Western sanctions<\/a> tightened.<\/p>\n

China is once again the largest buyer of Russian crude oil shipments. Tracking data show that roughly 1.65 million barrels per day of crude were offloaded at Chinese ports in January \u2014 the highest level since March 2024 and the second-highest monthly total since Moscow\u2019s 2022 invasion of Ukraine.<\/p>\n

The purchases provide Moscow with a critical revenue stream as Western governments attempt to constrain Russia\u2019s war financing through sanctions and price caps.<\/p>\n

The juxtaposition at Munich was stark: Beijing offering to help repair Ukraine\u2019s energy grid while simultaneously remaining a major buyer of the oil that funds the Russian war machine Western officials say is destroying it.<\/p>\n

Beijing rejects the accusation that it is enabling the war, arguing instead that sanctions and military escalation will not resolve the conflict and that it supports negotiations.<\/p>\n

By maintaining diplomatic channels with Ukraine and offering humanitarian support, Beijing preserves a foothold in potential post-war reconstruction discussions, even as its economic ties with Moscow deepen.<\/p>\n

For European governments weighing additional measures against Chinese entities accused of supplying dual-use goods to Russia, Beijing\u2019s humanitarian outreach complicates the diplomatic picture.<\/p>\n

For Washington, however, the framing at Munich was direct: China has the economic and technological influence to change Russia\u2019s calculus.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
