European Union intelligence services have reportedly confirmed that China provided training to Russian military personnel who subsequently participated in the conflict in Ukraine. High-ranking EU officials, speaking anonymously, indicated that European services uncovered evidence of this training occurring on Chinese territory, an assertion Beijing has consistently denied. This development comes as Ukraine prepares to request an additional $20 billion in military aid from allies at the upcoming Ramstein meeting. Separately, the United States intends to reduce its military assets, including fighter jets and warships, in Europe. European officials acknowledge this reduction could potentially affect the ongoing conflict in Ukraine.
