China supplies various weapon components to the Russian market - Zelenskyy

The Defence Intelligence of Ukraine has information that weapon components from China are entering the Russian market. Similar data is also provided by Western intelligence agencies that maintain partnership relations with our state.

President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyy said this.

As noted, the occupiers receive weapon components from China, which then enter the domestic market of the aggressor country. Additionally, the weapons that Russia uses against our country contain components produced by other countries.

"Today there are signals from various intelligence agencies, including Ukrainian, that something somehow gets into the Russian market through China. I would be very consistent here. There are indeed certain components that are part of the armament of the Russian Federation, which are elements of one or another weapon, that come from China,"  Volodymyr Zelenskyy emphasized.

He also adds that "the matter does not end" with Chinese details. For the production of weapons, Russia still uses components produced by other countries of the world.

However, Zelenskyy cautioned against drawing conclusions that these countries deliberately sell their weapons to Russia.
