China Denies Zelensky's Accusations
The official representative of China's Foreign Ministry, Lin Qiang, has denied the accusations made by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
"We have always actively advocated for the cessation of war and fire, as well as for the establishment of peace and negotiations. China has never supplied lethal weapons to any party in the conflict and exercises strict control over dual-use goods. The Ukrainian side also clearly and publicly notes that most of the components for weapons are imported by Russia from the USA and other Western countries. China firmly opposes baseless accusations and political manipulation," stated on the Foreign Ministry's official website.
China's response came after Zelensky declared that China is supplying gunpowder and artillery to Russia and is also manufacturing certain weapons within Russian territory.
