(Sputnik) - China believes that US efforts to fuel a Russian threat have severely damaged Ukraine's economy and social stability, and expresses the hope that the spread of misinformation will stop, Chinese Foreign Ministry Spokesman Wang Wenbin said on Wednesday.
Last Friday, Bloomberg claimed, citing an anonymous source, that Russia plans to invade Ukraine on 15 February, by inciting provocation in the breakaway region of Donbas or launching an assault on Kiev.
On Tuesday, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said the Western campaign on an alleged Russian incursion into Ukraine constitutes information terrorism while reiterating that Russian troops perform military exercises on its own territory and on its own schedule, which should not concern any country.
"For days, the US has been playing up the threat of war and creating an air of tension. This has gravely impacted the economy, social stability and people’s lives in Ukraine, and added obstacles to advancing dialogue and negotiation between parties concerned", Wang said at a briefing.
He added that the Chinese side paid attention to Russia's recent statement that the West resorted to "information terrorism" in the Ukrainian crisis while noting that " 15 February 2022, will go down in history as the day of the failure of Western propaganda".
