China may be planning to supply Russia with weapons – Stoltenberg.

Nato Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg says he has seen signs that China may be planning to supply Russia with weapons.

In an interview with Reuters, he says that though Nato has not seen any actual supplies of weapons from China to Russia yet, there are indications China may be planning to do so.

Stoltenberg adds that China “should not support Russia’s illegal war”, which he calls a “blatant violation of international law” as well as the UN Charter – which China is subject to as a member of the UN Security Council.

He says the basic principle of the Charter is that countries should “respect the integrity of other nations and not to march in and invade another country with hundreds of thousands of troops and of course, China should not be part of that”.
