The United States has imposed sanctions on two China-based drone suppliers and their Russian partners, marking the first time Chinese firms have been penalized for supplying complete weapons systems to Russia for its war in Ukraine. The US Treasury Department announced Thursday that the Chinese companies were directly involved in arms supplies to Moscow. Washington has previously accused China of aiding Russia’s war effort by providing dual-use goods and components, which Beijing denies. These new sanctions underscore growing tensions over China’s alleged support for Russia in the ongoing conflict.
