US Secretary of State Antony Blinken told lawmakers on Wednesday that China was "very carefully" watching how Washington and the world respond to Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the impact of which he said was being felt in Asia.

Speaking on the heels of a visit to Moscow by Chinese President Xi Jinping, Blinken said if Russia was allowed to attack its neighbor with impunity, it would "open a Pandora's box" for would-be aggressors and lead to a "world of conflict."

"The stakes in Ukraine go well beyond Ukraine. ... I think it has a profound impact in Asia, for example," Blinken said, noting that Japan and South Korea had been major supporters of Ukraine in the conflict. However, he said he did not believe that China has been providing lethal aid to Russia.
