EU Intelligence Confirms China Trained Russian Troops for Ukraine War
(united24media.com)
UkraineEuropean Union officials have confirmed that China provided military training to hundreds of Russian soldiers who were subsequently deployed to participate in Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
During a briefing in Brussels on June 12, a high-ranking EU representative stated that intelligence services have gathered clear evidence of this training. Training took place across multiple locations within Chinese territory, according to Deutsche Welle.

On June 15, EU foreign ministers are scheduled to meet in Luxembourg to address this development. The agenda includes a broader discussion on relations with China, focusing on security and foreign policy. Ministers will also examine the European defense industry's reliance on Chinese supply chains and potential strategies to mitigate those dependencies.

Previous reports from various international sources have suggested that these training programs, which allegedly occurred in late 2025, utilized six military bases in China.
These programs were reportedly focused on the operation of drone systems, electronic warfare tactics, and advanced battlefield simulations. Some of the soldiers involved were reportedly linked to elite Russian drone units that have been active in the front-line regions of Ukraine.
At the same time, Russia launched a three-day exercise involving its nuclear forces on May 19, mobilizing around 64,000 troops and 7,800 units of military equipment just hours before Russian leader Vladimir Putin departed for a two-day trip to China.

Fascists trash helping fascist trash. Then uneducated children go around and call China communist or socialist? Fucking morons...
This comment reads like someone who got an American education, and then learned about politics from Wikipedia, lol. What is the definition of fascism, socialism and communism?
This account looks like it’s a Russian bot, looking from its history of comments. I banned and recommended it to others.
Russia is a shit hole with a dictator. Death to Putin. Hope this helps confuse your small liberal brain!
Anybody wanna give me the definition of these big words, or just more down votes?
As someone with family and heritage from Myanmar: China is 100% absolutely a capitalistic fascist state.
This is wrong. And borderline removed.
Look up rubber cultivation in Myanmar and jade mines and get back to me. Hell, look up the ongoing civil war that's happening there and ask yourself who's behind the military government killing the people fighting for liberation. Britain, America, Russia, China... It's all the same old song, just maybe with a faster tempo this time.

It doesn't say much for Chinese military training.
They were training them on chinese drones and gear no doubt.
Russia shouldn't need chinese gear at all, the fact that with all of their money and industrialization they can't even run their own war machine and instead use foreign arms manufacturers and themselves repurpose consumer goods for military purposes shows just how far they have fallen.
I bet it was the other way around: experienced ruzzian drone teams training Chinese units. Same as we do to learn from Ukrainian experience.
Seriously, that is embarassing for China.
If it weren't for China's production of RC minature jet engines they would have virtually nothing of note militarily to contribute.
well good news about all this if China did indeed train Russia for this "3 day operation" guess we don't have to worry about China much either.
Ok.....but what if China wants Russia to lose in a future war agsinst China? So they trsined them poorly on purpose.
As a joke!
China has learned a lot and might not suffer from the problems of Russia.
It's a nothingburger. The West already supports Ukraine in evey way, so it's obvious China does similar to Russia except short of overtly selling arms and more loans to Kremlin because the Beijing is afraid of secondary sanctions. 90% of all Chinese banks did not want to loan to Russia because of this. Training Russians has less consequences for China.
The Chinese government supports the aggressor here, and is therefore a threat to Europe. Beijing isn't neutral as it claims to be.
Especially if it's "hundreds". That's less than a rounding error.
@Sepia And the UK trained Ukrainian troops, so what? The real news is that neither side are working toward peace and an end to war. Neither side is different in any way.
This is factually inaccurate. Ukraine has made several overtures for peace that russia has declined for imperialist reasons. Also, Ukraine has democratically declared their disinterest in becoming a russian vassal as evidenced by their ouster of the pro-russian government, which precipitated this whole thing. Freedom is more important than peace, particularly when all that needs to be done to obtain peace is for russia to withdraw to their pre 2014 borders and cut the shit. Cries for peace at all cost are cries for capitulation, and consequently, pro-invader garbage.
Less than one day old account. Ignore.
STFU, donkey.
The French were just as much at fault as the Germans when they got invaded in 1940 by your logic.
Or was it the UK's fault because they didn't accept Hitler's offer of peace after the fall of France?
This is an extraordinarily disgusting comment as you probably know yourself as Russia is the aggressor in this war.
@Sepia Western propaganda says that Russia is the aggressor and eastern propaganda says the west is. When the country descended into civil war due to a violent coup each side blames the other. That is normal and the opposite of working toward peace. Wave your flag all you like but to me you look disgusting as you stand on the bodies of others. You should learn the actual history of what happened before you attack.
Which side started the war?
@Sepia Who created the armies within Ukraine that were focused on war? It was not the Ukrainian people as they wanted peace. It would have taken a lot of money to create Azov, Sich and Right Sector. Then again if you wish to continue being simplistic you could say Azov, Sich and Right Sector. Or you could forget about the start and move on 8 years and blame Russia.
Or you could forget about the start
You mean the start of russian occupation of the Ukrainian territory? I'd rather not forget about that
@Seppo Ohh, come on. If you are going to descend into childish abuse I am sure you can do better than that. How about "Kremlin bot"? I see it as you that is uneducated given you lack the ability to look at the situation objectively and would rather thousands of people die and a whole country is destroyed. If people only follow the propaganda they only go to war. I am opposed to war.
First of all, China publicly denies being involved in the Russian war on Ukraine and tries to present itself as neutral country. The UK does not make a secret out of supporting Ukraine. The second point is, Russia invaded Ukraine for imperial reasons to gain territory. If you can't see how the sides are different, you are crazy, or stupid, or both.
@lokalhorst When did the UK admit to having troops in Ukraine and stop making out it only offered defence? Even if you were correct how would that change what I said? There are lots of differences between the two sides but when someone says that Russia invaded they clearly did not follow what happened. We took a side in the civil war as did Russia. We sent in troops secretly and after 8 years of trying to stop the ethnic cleansing and genocide Russia took a side. Russia took the side of the ethnic Russian people who were being cleansed which, given they are ethnic Russian I can see there reason. We took the side of the people waving the Bandera flag. The Nazis. At least Russia spent 8 years trying to agree a peaceful way through before Boris Johnson stepped in and got Zelenskyy to agree to war.
They say opinions can't be wrong, since they're opinions. Well, yours is the exception to the rule. Your opinion is factually wrong.
@Lost_My_Mind OK, I accept that yours was simply another poor attempt at abuse but lets try debate. Forget that I want peace and imagine that I accept that war is the only way. If we do have an all out war with Russia that involves Ukraine as the main battlefield, how would that help Ukraine? China, Iran etc. would take Russia's side which would mean arms exchanges in either direction. How do you believe we would survive? Even if you manage to murder enough people to claim a victory what state would Europe be left in? Do you honestly see it as worth the mass murder and destruction on both economic and infrastructure? Why is peace such a bad option? Remember, Russia only wanted a referendum. Russia wanted democracy yet Boris Johnson wanted war. The people of Ukraine voted for Zelenskyy because he stood on a platform of avoiding the war that everyone could see coming. It was not Russia or Ukraine that wanted this war. What do we gain? I walked through the streets of east London 15 years after WWII and the rubble had been cleared and there was just miles of roads with no buildings. Winning is not as great as it sounds. It took decades to rebuild Europe. To make me see differently you need to convince me that war is worth it. You need to tell me how war is better than democracy. We had the debate over Northern Ireland where there were two entrenched sides at war and it was US President Clinton that said that the UK should allow the IRA to run in the election. The UK said that they would never surrender to terrorists etc. (after having handed part of Palestine to Irgun) but eventually the IRA formed Sein Fein and were allowed to take part in the elections. They got 2% of the vote and the IRA crept away into the shadows. Peace works. The Ukrainian people want it.
@Lost_My_Mind You are welcome to your opinion but given that it contains no statement it is factually absent. Why not engage in the discourse and make an objective statement?
They are very different in many ways, but this specific thing is the same and not really newsworthy.
I mean, I would argue that providing training to troops that are defending their own country from invasion is still very different than providing training to the aggresors of said conflict.
I think this is just China setting up the expectation for reciprocal support if China gets into an armed conflict over Taiwan.
