"Never forget who is the real threat to the world," the Chinese embassy said. 

It said the administration of U.S. President Joe Biden is to "blame for the current tensions around Ukraine" as it poured fuel on the flame, "while accusing others of not doing their best to put out the fire.

Last Friday, Russia's permanent representative to the UN, Vasili Nebenzia, in the framework of a debate within the Security Council, asked his U.S. counterpart, Linda Thomas-Greenfield, not to give moral lessons on "invasions". 

"It is certainly difficult for us to compete with the United States in terms of the number of invasions of our neighbors," he said. "I will refrain from listing the aggressions that the United States has committed in its history. But does it have to give us moral lessons?" he exhorted.
