U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen criticized China’s regime for its dubious stance on Russia’s war against Ukraine in remarks in which she outlined a “way forward” for the global economy.
Beijing recently affirmed having a “special relationship” with Russia, which Yellen hopes might play a role in ending the ongoing war, according to an April 13 statement. Moving forward, it will be “increasingly difficult” to separate economic issues from matters such as national security, according to the statement.
