Biden Warns China of ‘Consequences’ if It Aids Russia in Ukraine War

President Biden warned Chinese President Xi Jinping that Beijing would face consequences if it provides "material support" to Russia amid its invasion of Ukraine, the White House said Friday.

"President Biden detailed our efforts to prevent and then respond to the invasion, including by imposing costs on Russia," said a White House readout of the call published hours after it concluded. "He described the implications and consequences if China provides material support to Russia as it conducts brutal attacks against Ukrainian cities and civilians."
