The Chinese Foreign Ministry reminded NATO of the promise not to expand to the East

Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian hinted at NATO’s tendency to break promises.

“The promise not to expand NATO ‘not an inch east’ looks like this in reality,” Lijian published such a post with a map of NATO expansion to the East on his Twitter.

Recall that at the end of 2021, Russia published drafts of a treaty with the United States and an agreement with NATO on security guarantees. Western partners were required to provide legal guarantees of refusing further expansion of NATO to the east, from joining the bloc of Ukraine. There was also a clause on the non-deployment of NATO strike weapons near Russia’s borders.
