Ukraine has imposed sanctions on three Chinese companies after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy accused China of supplying weapons to Russia and taking part in joint weapons production on Russian soil.
The sanctions were announced on April 18 and target Beijing Aviation and Aerospace Xianghui Technology Co. Ltd., Rui Jin Machinery Co. Ltd., and Zhongfu Shenying Carbon Fiber Xining Co. Ltd. All three companies are registered in China. The order, enacted by presidential decree, freezes their assets in Ukraine and bars them from conducting business in the country. Officials did not provide details on why the companies were sanctioned.
