The official representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China, Zhao Lijian, on his Twitter drew attention to the fact that 85% of the world's population did not impose anti-Russian sanctions.


He published the corresponding picture with a pie chart, which shows that only 15% of the world's population has imposed sanctions on Russia. 

"Only the majority represent the international community," Lijian said.

Earlier, China strongly opposed illegal unilateral sanctions proposed by US Senator Marco Rubio against legal entities that service oil or LNG tankers from Russia to China.
