China is helping Russia in the war: Zelenskyy's statement

China is helping the Russian Federation to prolong the war in Ukraine. Additionally, Moscow is receiving military aid from Iran and North Korea.

This was stated by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy during his address to the European Council.

"He (Putin - Ed.) is receiving assistance from North Korea in the form of shells, equipment, and now even personnel. Plus, there is Iran... Unfortunately, we also have clear intelligence that China is still actively helping Russia to prolong this war," the President said.

According to Zelenskyy, Russia needs more resources. This is why "führer" Volodymyr Putin is preparing reinforcements to continue the war, not to end it. Zelenskyy says that the Kremlin leader is aiming to match the EU's ammunition production by next year.
