- Chinese state-owned company Jilin Chemical Fiber Group shiiped 46 metric tons of carbon chemicals to a subsidiary of Russia’s Rosatom in early 2026, according to shipping and customs record.
- Rosatom is subject to Western sanctions.
- The Ukrainian government verified the authenticity of the materials. According to a Ukrainian official, Kyiv confirmed the authenticity of the documents.
- At the same time, documents obtained by the Ukrainian Security and Cooperation Center (USCC) describe in detail a possible mechanism for the direct supply of materials by a Chinese state-owned company to Russia. The USCC has shared these documents with the U.S. and British governments.
- Chinese components are regularly found among the wreckage of Russian drones following attacks on Ukraine.
China is also selling all drone components to Ukraine. They just want to get busines.
They support Russia in this war to weaken Europe (and Russia). China is a decisive supporter for Russia for a lot more than business.
In 2023, for example, Lu Shaye, then Chinese ambassador to France, publicly said that former Soviet-states such as Ukraine have “no effective status as sovereign countries”. The same ambassador is today China’s special envoy for Europe.
There is a long list of Chinese support activities for Russia that go far beyond economic issues.
Doesn’t make it better. People, animals and Terra in general dying for the sake of business is… Bad. Isn’t it?
