China & Andrey Belousov

China: China is providing covert military training to Russian forces, including sensitive RCB warfare, despite publicly maintaining neutrality in the Ukraine conflict. This action deepens its strategic partnership with Russia and draws scrutiny and potential sanctions from the European Union.

Andrey Belousov: As Russia's Defense Minister, Andrey Belousov personally approved the internal decree in August 2025 for Russian armed forces to participate in training exercises in China, highlighting his central role in this military cooperation.

Andrey Belousov: Andrey Belousov, as the Russian Defence Minister, discussed ongoing defence acquisition projects with Rajnath Singh, including the supply of S-400 missile systems.

Andrey Belousov: Andrey Belousov, Russian Ambassador-at-Large, objected to singling out Iran at the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons conference and hoped criticism would not affect the outcome.
