Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has asserted that Ukrainian intelligence has identified over 150 Chinese citizens fighting alongside Russian forces in Ukraine. Despite these claims, the Chinese government has dismissed assertions of significant Chinese involvement, categorically rejecting the idea that many of its citizens are engaged in the conflict. Recent reports indicate that Ukraine has captured several Chinese nationals, with Zelensky demanding answers regarding their presence on the battlefield. The situation remains complex as China investigates these claims while asserting that any military actions involving Chinese citizens would require official authorization. The capture of these individuals has raised concerns in the international community, prompting discussions on potential recruitment of foreign fighters by Russia.
