On June 9, Lin Jian, a spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, presided over a regular press conference. A reporter from Russia Today (RT) asked: Recently, Kadri?a? Karas, the EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, said that the European Union will, on the grounds that oil tankers pose a danger and are intended to limit Russia’s capabilities, allow its warships in the Mediterranean to inspect and detain oil tankers transporting Russian oil. It is reported that in early June, the navies of France and the United Kingdom had already seized an oil tanker departing from Russia. What comments does China have on this? Will it affect the normal order of international energy transportation? Lin Jian said: “We have noted the relevant reports. China has consistently opposed illegal unilateral sanctions that lack a basis in international law and do not have authorization from the UN Security Council, and calls on the relevant parties to resolve the issue through dialogue and consultation.” (The Paper)
