Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi has reportedly expressed concern to the European Union about a potential Russian defeat in the ongoing Ukraine conflict, contradicting China’s public stance on the matter.
What Happened: Wang conveyed to the EU’s top diplomat, Kaja Kallas, that Beijing is apprehensive about the United States and President Donald Trump shifting its entire focus to China if Russia were to lose in Ukraine. This is a deviation from China’s usual assertion that it is “not a party” to the war, according to a report by the South China Morning Post.
