Russia systematically recruits Chinese citizens for war against Ukraine — Zelenskyy
The head of state announced this on Facebook.
The Security Service of Ukraine is taking the necessary procedural actions with the prisoners (two Chinese citizens — ed.), who were captured recently in the Donetsk region. All information regarding the participation of other such persons in Russia's actions against Ukraine is also being studied. It is obvious that these are not isolated cases, but systematic Russian work, in particular, on the territory and in the jurisdiction of China, to recruit citizens of this state for the war.
