Since the onset of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, there is growing concern that China is indirectly fueling this aggression through the provision of essential resources. While Western nations, including the US and EU, have imposed sanctions on Chinese entities supplying microchips, critical elements like gallium, germanium, and antimony remain unregulated. These minerals are vital for military technology and are reportedly funneled to Russia's military through State-affiliated companies. Despite official denials from China regarding its involvement in the conflict, evidence suggests a significant contribution to Russia's munitions capabilities, complicated by the lack of Chinese sanctions.
Since Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine nearly three years ago, Western nations have accused China of supplying Moscow with microchips and other critical dual-use technologies that are "powering Russia's brutal war of aggression."
