President Joe Biden told reporters that there is "no evidence" to support claims that China is backing Russia in its war against Ukraine. The statement comes after White House officials said China is considering sending artillery and ammunition to support Russian forces.

China has long claimed to have a neutral stance on the conflict, but the country has a "no limits” relationship with Russia and has refused to criticize its invasion of Ukraine over even refer to it as such, while accusing the West of provoking the conflict and “fanning the flames" by providing Ukraine with defensive arms.

Biden told reporters it would be against China's best interests to support Russia, citing a conversation he had with Chinese President Xi Jinping. #china #russia #ukraine #news #politics #ukrainewar
