The ex-president Dmitry Medvedev of Russia quoted a 1941 Stalin message to urge the increase in weapon production by the arms manufacturing industry of Russia. President Biden says that China has yet to send any weapons to Russia to maintain its weapon stock, which is quickly being exhausted in the Russia-Ukraine war.
On Friday, Biden told a news conference during a visit to Canada that there are rumors that China is sending many weapons to Russia that must be utilized against Ukraine. Biden confirmed China isn’t sending weapons yet, but it doesn’t mean they can’t do so.
Biden says he doesn’t take China and Russia lightly, but he also said that the relations between the two countries are being exaggerated. Chinese President Xi Jinping visited Moscow this week, and both countries hailed their relations, but China hasn’t confirmed that it will provide weapons to Russia, which are exhausted in the Ukraine war.
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken says Russia is a junior partner in the Relationship, but Beijing has yet to decline to provide weapons to Moscow. He said neither Russia nor China had crossed the line yet. Russia’s weapon manufacturing industry took center stage as Russian former President Medvedev read the menacing 1941 telegram by the soviet dictator Stalin which mainly aimed at the boost in weapon manufacturing by Russia.

The letter points at the factory men and states that they must fulfill their duty as it is a matter of their fatherland’s honor and interest. Further, he said they are becoming lazy, far from the battlefield, but Russian troops are suffering out there.
