"China has become the main financial backer for Russia’s war against Ukraine,
MPs have been told.
Air Marshal Ed Stringer, a former head of RAF intelligence, said Beijing was
“covertly” ramping up its support for Moscow as it sought to gain an economic
advantage over the West.
“China has discretely built supply lines going to drone factories in Russia,”
he told the Commons defence committee on Tuesday.
“Open source suggests 60 per cent of the Russian war effort is being covertly
bankrolled by China… so there’s a huge amount of support from China.”
The retired officer added: “Russia can only maintain this war because China is
essentially bankrolling it.”"
