"US Concerned as China Backs Russia's Military Expansion"

The US has accused China of aiding Russia in its significant military expansion by providing technology and materials crucial for producing missiles, tanks, and aircraft for the war in Ukraine. US officials hope to rally European allies to pressure China as German Chancellor Olaf Scholz heads to Beijing and G7 foreign ministers prepare to meet. The US has imposed restrictions on metal-trading exchanges to disrupt Russian export revenue, while also planning to engage in dialogue with China to address concerns about its support for Russia.
