Russia is requesting that China provide support for the ongoing invasion of Ukraine
Russia asked China for assistance in its ongoing invasion of Ukraine, U.S. officials warn.
The New York Times reported that Russian officials sought military equipment and support from their Chinese counterparts as the invasion of Ukraine — launched last month by Russian President Vladimir Putin — continues.
Russian leaders also sought economic assistance from China to help lessen the burden of sanctions issued by Western nations that have devastated the Russian economy.
