“We demand not to supply weapons to Russia and we are monitoring this situation,” Scholz said.
Earlier, in an interview with CNN, the German chancellor said China’s arms supply to the Russian Federation would bring consequences for Beijing.
Recall that in late February, US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken said that Beijing “is seriously considering providing lethal assistance to Russia.”
Subsequently, the official representative of the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Mao Ning, declared the unacceptability of US pressure on China’s relations with the Russian Federation in the context of alleged “China’s military assistance to Russia”.
