Beijing says China supports Russia, but considers the military conflict an “internal affair” of the Russian Federation.
Official Beijing on Sunday, June 25, commented on the military rebellion of the head of the Wagner PMC, Yevgeny Prigozhin. The corresponding statement was made by a representative of the Chinese Foreign Ministry.
In China, they say the rebellion is an “internal affair” of Russia, while implying that Beijing supports Moscow in supporting national stability.
“This is Russia’s internal affairs. As a friendly neighbor of Russia and a comprehensive strategic partner for coordinating actions in the new era, China supports Russia in supporting national stability and achieving development and prosperity, ” said the spokesperson of the Chinese Foreign Ministry.
Recall that on June 24, columns of “Wagnerites” advanced into Russian territory. Military facilities and administrative buildings in Voronezh and Rostov-on-Don are under the control of Wagner militants. But at night, Prigozhin announced that he was turning his columns from near Moscow and returning to the field camps “according to plan.”
The media also learned that Putin promised Prigozhin to stop the march on Moscow.
