Chinese envoy to US says Beijing is not sending arms to Russia
Washington: China's key envoy to the United States has rejected claims that Beijing is sending military equipment to Russia to support Moscow's invasion of Ukraine.
"There is disinformation about China providing military assistance to Russia. We reject that," Chinese envoy Qin Gang said in an interview with CBS.
He said Beijing is not sending arms and ammunition to Russia or Ukraine.
"What China is doing is sending food, medicine, sleeping bags and baby formula," he said.
"We are against a war, as I said, you know, we will do everything to dis-escalate the crisis," he said.
Russia invaded Ukraine last month.
