SloveniaThe German Foreign Ministry has expressed concern over reports suggesting China may be training Russian soldiers, potentially providing indirect military support to Russia's war efforts in Ukraine. The claims, first reported by the German newspaper Die Welt citing intelligence data, allege that hundreds of Russian troops were trained in China, some later deployed to the Ukrainian front. These allegations have not been independently verified, and China has neither confirmed nor denied them. Germany views any activity aiding Russia's continuation of the war as a direct security issue for Europe. Chinese experts have dismissed the accusations as baseless, attributing them to European attempts to shift focus away from their own challenges caused by the conflict. China maintains it remains neutral in the war and has rejected similar claims made earlier this year.
