  • The comments come as top policymakers from around the world gather in southern India for a meeting focused on accelerating global economic recovery.

  • Yellen declined to describe specific US intelligence about Russian attempts to avoid sanctions, but the Treasury Department has pointed to attempts by Russia to seek assistance from China to supply it with items facing trade restrictions.

  • The US has cracked down on some companies and organisations supplying goods and services to Russia, including imposing sanctions on a Chinese company that had provided satellite imagery to the Wagner mercenary group, which has played a large role in the battle for eastern Ukraine.

  • The US hopes to include a condemnation of Russia’s actions in Ukraine in the joint statement or communiqué that the finance ministers of the Group of 20 nations, which include Russia and China, are set to release this week.
