The Pentagon is concerned amid a rise in “troubling” reports that cooperation is increasing between Moscow and Beijing regarding China’s efforts to build new nuclear weapons. On Wednesday and Thursday, the Department of Defense (DOD) made an official accusation regarding the reports.
In an interview with CBS’ “Face the Nation” on Sunday, CIA Director William Burns confirmed the Biden administration’s claims that China is considering sending lethal weapons to Russia. “We’re confident that the Chinese leadership is considering the provision of lethal equipment,” Burns said.
On Saturday China’s Foreign Ministry issued an order for all Chinese nationals still in Ukraine to leave the country immediately. The evacuation order has brought rising concerns that China might be aware of more planned Russian airstrikes over many Ukrainian cities like those carried out last Monday and Tuesday.
