On November 13, Chinese Foreign Ministry Speaker Lin Jian, quoted by the Chinese edition of the Global Times, said that Beijing has never provided weapons to any of the parties to the war in Ukraine and does not intend to tolerate attempts by the G7 to blame China.
He said that the G7 document again ignores the facts, distorts the truth and deliberately defames China by grossly interfering in the country's internal affairs.
Lin Jian called on the G7 to recognize global trends, abandon the Cold War mentality and ideological prejudices, stop manipulating China-related issues and interfering in the country's internal affairs, and focus on actions that promote international solidarity and cooperation.
Context
Since the beginning of the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine, China has declared neutrality, but in fact supported Russia: in voting at the UN and in the supply of equipment. According to the US, in the spring of 2024 he significantly increased this support – transmits intelligence, optics, missile fuel, tank production equipment and other goods.
At the end of 2024, the media reported that China for the first time provided Russia with weapons for the war against Ukraine.
On October 13, 2025, The Washington Post wrote that China in the summer significantly increased its supply to Russia of the main components necessary for the production of fiber optic drones.
On October 29, The Wall Street Journal wrote that China last year transferred to Russia more than 3 million motors that are used in the production of UAVs, including FPV drones.
