The US and British intelligence agencies have evidence that China is preparing to provide Russia with lethal aid for use in the war against Ukraine. This was reported by Reuters<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n

This was stated by British Defense Secretary Grant Shapps at a conference in London.<\/p>\n\n

“Lethal aid is now or will be coming from China to Russia and Ukraine, and I consider this a significant development,” he said.<\/p>\n\n

Shapps did not provide evidence to support his claim.<\/p>\n\n

“We should be concerned about this because in the early days of this war, China would like to present itself as a deterrent to Russian President Vladimir Putin,” he added.<\/p>\n\n

As you know, last month the Chinese Embassy in the United States stated that it did not provide weapons to Russia, adding that China “is not a producer or party involved in the Ukrainian crisis.”<\/p>\n\n

However, China continues to sell to Russia technologies for mass production of drones and weapons components, thus helping the aggressor country to achieve its military goals in the war against Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n

Earlier this month, Putin visited China, where he and Chinese leader Xi Jinping pledged a “new era” of partnership that means confronting the United States on a range of security issues and taking a common view on everything from Taiwan to Ukraine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
