China is helping Russia achieve its military goals in Ukraine by continuing to sell Moscow goods such as drone technology and gunpowder ingredients, according to US Permanent Representative to NATO Julianne Smith.
"The PRC [People's Republic of China] cannot claim to be entirely neutral in this case, [and] they are picking a side," Julianne Smith told POLITICO on Tuesday. "I think when the PRC tries to portray itself as neutral when it comes to this war, we don't buy it," she says.
According to her, the United States "increasingly seeing material support" from Russia from China. In particular, this equipment - which can have both civilian and military purposes - has played a decisive role in Moscow's achievement of some goals regarding Ukraine.

The US is concerned about this support. US State Department Deputy Speaker Vedant Patel said that Washington is ready to take new measures against China because it aids the Russian defense industry.
