China has called on the United States to immediately remove its unilateral sanctions against Venezuela, emphasizing the need to promote peace and development across Latin America and the Caribbean. The appeal was made by Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning during a press briefing on November 28, 2025.
"China consistently opposes illegal unilateral sanctions lacking UN Security Council authorization and rejects external interference in Venezuela's internal affairs," Mao stated, reaffirming Beijing's commitment to international law. The remarks come amid growing regional efforts to address economic challenges exacerbated by foreign sanctions.
Analysts note this development aligns with China's broader advocacy for multilateral solutions to global disputes. Latin American nations have increasingly sought partnerships with Asian countries this year to diversify trade networks and stabilize energy markets.
