China supported Russia in meeting with EU foreign policy chief
During a meeting with EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi said that the country cannot accept that Russia loses the war against Ukraine, a source told CNN. According to the information, the minister expressed concern that the United States would shift its focus entirely to China if the war in Ukraine ends.
The channel reports that the information contradicts China's public stance as neutral in the conflict.
Kallas and Wang Yi met for a four-hour meeting in Brussels on Wednesday. The leaders reportedly discussed cybersecurity, Taiwan and the Middle East, among other issues, according to the source.
When asked about the meeting with Kallas, Mao Ning, a spokesperson for the Chinese Foreign Ministry, replied that China wants a ceasefire and peace in Ukraine.

Report: Hegseth stopped delivery to Ukraine
US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth stopped a weapons delivery to Ukraine this week, sources told NBC News. The Defense Department says the US has too little ammunition in its stockpiles, but according to the information, the delivery had not jeopardized the country's access to equipment.
The decision came as a surprise to both Ukraine, the US State Department and members of Congress, the sources said.
Democrat Adam Smith accuses the administration of incorrectly referring to a shortage in the stockpiles and that it is really just about Trump and his staff wanting to cut American aid to Ukraine.
– We do not have lower stockpiles than we have had throughout the three and a half years that the war has been going on, he says.
