In particular, last year 90% of microelectronics received by Russia came from China.
The Secretary General of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), Jens Stoltenberg, emphasizes that China plays a key role in supporting Russia’s war against Ukraine. According to the correspondent of UNIAN, Stoltenberg said this at a press conference in Brussels before the two-day meeting of defense ministers of the member countries of the Alliance.
“We see China now playing a key role in providing or supporting Russia’s war in Ukraine. 90% of the microelectronics that Russia imported last year came from China. These items, the electronic equipment that is key to the production of missiles, bombs and battle tanks, used in Russia’s aggressive war against Ukraine,” Stoltenberg emphasized.
He emphasized that China creates an opportunity for Russia to wage an aggressive war against Ukraine.
China supports Russia in the war – what is known
As UNIAN reported, the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyi emphasized that with the support of Russia from China, the war will last longer .
According to the president, one cannot talk about supporting the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Ukraine and at the same time support a country that violates all these principles.
Earlier, the mass media reported that the USA, together with other countries, may take measures against Chinese companies and financial institutions due to the fact that Beijing supports the Russian Federation in the war against Ukraine.
China has promised not to send weapons to Russia, but it supports the Russian economy by buying oil and expanding other types of trade.

Yet another “let’s state the obvious” from Stoltenberg, without offering anyway to stop it.
Making this a public talking point has some value, too. Because that’s exactly the kind of impression that Xi wants to avoid. Stoltenberg’s criticism may lead the dictator to stop some ‘too obvious’ deliveries, like those effing golf carts. 🤨
Good point. Why is it that the NATO leaders end up acting like journalists instead of military generals?
Perhaps a military general like Hodges would be a whole lot better than the useless politicians that have lead NATO.
