China has lodged a diplomatic protest against Canada for including Chinese companies in new sanctions against Russia, its foreign ministry said on Tuesday.

"China has consistently opposed unilateral sanctions that lack a basis in international law and are not authorized by the United Nations Security Council," Lin Jian, a spokesperson for China's foreign ministry, told a regular news conference on Tuesday, in reference to the sanctions announced by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Monday.

On Monday, Trudeau announced new sanctions targeting 76 individuals and entities who the government says are providing support to Russia's military, are involved in the forced transfer of Ukrainian children or support Russian President Vladimir Putin's regime.

China, stop helping Putin slaughter innocent people, and we won't need to sanction you.

I have to wonder it it's not a bit of a dig at the FIPPA we've got with China, as in China invests in both Russia and Canada but we don't have to play their game by their rules.

I'm glad they're getting sanctioned. Xi is as much a scumbag as Trump is.
