According to a report by Reuters on July 3rd, in response to the absurd reports of 'China training Russian soldiers', a German foreign ministry spokesman revealed that Germany has requested an urgent meeting with the Chinese ambassador to Germany.
Recently, Reuters has once again reported such news. A spokesman for the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs criticized these claims, stating that they have no factual basis and are purely slanderous and defamatory.
According to sources in the German Ministry of Foreign Affairs, any actions that assist Russia in continuing the war against Ukraine will pose a threat to our security. Therefore, China's continued support for Russia directly affects our security.
According to Agence France-Presse, German Foreign Minister Weder Foltz confirmed during his visit to Brazil that there were urgent talks with China.
He stated that the German government had conducted ‘in-depth and honest’ discussions with the Chinese ambassador in Germany. ‘The Chinese side must recognize that Russia’s war against Ukraine threatens our core interests.’
Reports indicate that although such demands are seen as a clear sign of diplomatic protest, they do not constitute an official summons.
The Chinese Ministry of National Defense has also repeatedly emphasized that China's position on the Ukraine crisis is consistent and clear. Sino-Russian cooperation is neither directed at third parties nor influenced by third-party factors.
