Elijah J. Magnier 🇪🇺 (@ejmalrai): "EU leaders tell China 'not to interfere' with #Russia sanctions and expect Beijing to help end Russia’s war in #Ukraine or ‘not to interfere with western (not international and not sanctioned by the #UN) sanctions imposed on #Moscow.

"The #EU countries suddenly, after two years, remembered to hold talks with #China and "expect" #China to remain on the side. The EU leaders, submitted to the #US, received no significant response or assurances from #Beijing."

"Did the EU respect international laws in #Palestine, #Afghanistan, #Iraq, #Libyia, #Syria, and #Yemen to name but a few? Did the EU ask the US to lift all its unilateral sanctions that violate the international laws on #Venezuela, #Cuba and the rest of the world?"

"International laws should be applied to all countries w/o indiscrimination. Is it possible for the EU to stop the US from violating international laws? Where was the EU when the US imposed sanctions on the #ICC? #Hipocrisy https://www.theguardian.com/law/2020/sep/02/us-sanctions-international-criminal-court-fatou-bensouda" | Nitter | PussTheCat.org – https://nitter.pussthecat.org/ejmalrai/status/1510125553139036162#m
