US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said on Wednesday that China's political and financial support for Russia runs counter to Washington's interests.

"The United States has yet to see evidence that China is providing lethal aid to Russia in its war in Ukraine," Blinken said, following Chinese President Xi Jinping's visit to Moscow this week.

The US Secretary of State added, "The West's reaction to the Russian attack in Ukraine is a lesson for China."

He stressed that "the repercussions of what is happening in Ukraine will go beyond the region and will affect Asia."
