# Russia says that new US sanctions on its oil industry risked hurting diplomatic efforts to end the Ukraine war, adding it was immune to them. China also announced it opposes recent sanctions slapped by the United States on the two largest Russian oil companies over Moscow’s war in Ukraine, saying they had no basis in international law. US President Donald Trump announced the measures on Wednesday after plans for a fresh summit with Vladimir Putin collapsed. Trump complained that talks with his counterpart “don’t go anywhere”.
