G7 countries slam Chinese firms’ support for Russia’s defence industry

As they ended their meeting on Capri, the G7 ministers said transfers of such material [such as machine tools, semiconductors, other dual-use items that have helped Russia rebuild the defence industrial base] from Chinese companies were being used by Russia “to advance its military production”.

“This is enabling Russia to reconstitute and revitalise its defence industrial base, posing a threat both to Ukraine and to international peace and security,” they said, calling on China to stop its backing “as it will only prolong this conflict and increase the threat that Russia poses to its neighbours”.
