The first two captured Chinese citizens. Today, investigators from the Security Service of Ukraine spoke with them. We are finding out all the facts about the presence of these and other Chinese citizens in the Russian occupation army. Ukrainian intelligence is also working.

As of now, we have accurate data on more than 150 Chinese citizens whom Russia has involved in the war against Ukraine. We know that in reality there are more of them. Ukraine believes that even such an open involvement of Chinese citizens by Russia in the fighting on the territory of Ukraine in the war of aggression is a deliberate step towards expanding the war. This is another evidence that Moscow simply needs to drag out the fighting.

Russia does not care who exactly will die in this crazy war, it only needs the war to continue. We all need – all partners, all conscientious participants in international relations – for Russia to lose the opportunity to continue the war, in particular by using people like this.
