Ukraine Summons Chinese Ambassador Amid Concerns Over Russia War Support
Ukraine summoned Chinese Ambassador Ma Shengkun to address concerns about Chinese citizens fighting alongside Russia and Chinese companies manufacturing weapons for the Russian military. Deputy Foreign Minister Yevhen Perebyinis presented evidence of this support to the ambassador, urging China to cease all aid to Russia’s aggression. While acknowledging the strategic partnership between Ukraine and China, Perebyinis stressed that such actions contradict this relationship. Ukraine hopes China will refrain from further actions detrimental to bilateral ties. This meeting follows previous Ukrainian claims of Chinese weapons supply to Russia, which China has denied.
