Chinese Nationals Working in Drone Manufacturing Site in Russia: Zelenskyy
In a shocking revelation, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has claimed that Chinese citizens are working at a Russian drone manufacturing site, hinting that Russia may have stolen China’s drone technology. This latest development comes after Zelenskyy accused China of supplying arms to Russia, which China has denied.
According to Zelenskyy, the Chinese nationals are working at a drone production facility in Russia, which has raised concerns about the involvement of China in Russia’s ongoing war in Ukraine. Ukraine has summoned Chinese Ambassador Ma Shengkun to express its “serious concerns” over China’s involvement in Russia’s war.
The Ukrainian President made this statement while addressing a press conference in Kiev, Ukraine’s capital city. Zelenskyy claimed that the Chinese citizens were working at the drone manufacturing site, which he believed was a clear indication that China was providing technology and expertise to Russia.
“This is a clear example of how China is involved in the war in Ukraine,” Zelenskyy said. “It’s not just about supplying arms, but also about providing technical support and expertise. We are concerned about this development and have summoned the Chinese Ambassador to express our concerns.”
China has denied Zelenskyy’s allegations, with Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin stating that China has “never provided any military assistance to Russia.” Wang also emphasized that China is committed to maintaining good relations with both Ukraine and Russia.
Russia has also rejected Zelenskyy’s claims, with Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov stating that the allegations were “baseless” and “unfounded.” Peskov added that Russia has always been transparent about its military production and has never received any assistance from China.
However, Ukraine remains concerned about China’s involvement in the conflict. Ukraine’s Foreign Minister, Dmytro Kuleba, stated that Ukraine has information that Chinese companies are providing technical support to Russian military equipment, including drones.
“We have evidence that Chinese companies are providing technical support to Russian military equipment, including drones,” Kuleba said. “We are concerned about this development and will continue to monitor the situation closely.”
The revelation of Chinese nationals working at a Russian drone manufacturing site has raised questions about the extent of China’s involvement in the conflict. While China has denied providing any military assistance to Russia, Ukraine remains skeptical and is urging international pressure on China to stop its alleged involvement in the war.
The situation is complex, with both Ukraine and Russia accusing each other of aggression. Ukraine claims that Russia has been using drones to attack Ukrainian military positions, while Russia claims that Ukraine is launching attacks on Russian-occupied territories in eastern Ukraine.
China’s involvement in the conflict has been a point of contention, with Ukraine accusing China of providing financial and technical support to Russia. China has denied these allegations, but Ukraine remains concerned about the potential consequences of China’s involvement.
The situation highlights the complex web of international relations and the delicate balance of power in the region. As tensions continue to rise, it remains to be seen how the situation will unfold and what implications it may have for the region and the world at large.
