China supplied Russia with weapons for the war against Ukraine: The West received evidence.

The West believes it has received evidence of secret arms supplies to Russia from China. Such actions by China may indicate an escalation of Beijing's involvement in the Ukraine war. This was reported by The Times and Reuters, referring to a Western official.

According to the source, the West has evidence of the involvement of an unnamed Chinese company in supplying 'low-special military drones' to the Russian Federation, which were used during the war in Ukraine. The source refused to name the company. However, according to him, the deal to supply drones to Russia was carried out in 2023.

'Although the Chinese government may not acknowledge this, it will seek to keep its increasing support for Russia secret,' added the official.

Furthermore, the same official confirmed Reuters' report that Russia has established in China a program for developing and manufacturing long-range strike drones. They are also used in the war against Ukraine. According to information from two Reuters sources in European intelligence, Russia manufactured over 2500 'Harpy-A1' drones from July 2023 to July 2024.

A NATO representative, commenting to The Times, noted that the new information about China's military support to Russia 'raises deep concerns.' In turn, Alliance members 'are consulting on this issue.'

It is worth mentioning that China, together with Global South countries, has created the 'Friends of Peace' platform, which will deal with 'political resolution of the Ukrainian issue.'

Interestingly, Hungary is joining the 'Friends of Peace' platform organized by China and Brazil. The initiative aims to urgently start peace talks to end the war in Ukraine.

Earlier, Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic stated that the war in Ukraine will continue for another 10 years and will end with the Korean scenario - peaceful settlement along the current front line.
