CIA Director William Burns has confirmed that America is “safe” about what China is considering providing Russia with lethal equipment for the invasion of Ukraine. “We are confident that the Chinese leadership is considering the provision of lethal equipment,” Burns said in an interview with ‘CBS’.

However, the head of the US intelligence agency has indicated that up to now no final decision has been made and? no evidence of shipments of lethal weapons for now.

Burns’ remarks come a day after US President Joe Biden stated that there is currently no evidence to show that Beijing has supplied lethal weapons to Moscow.

In this sense, the president of the White House assured in statements to the press that in his last meeting with his Chinese counterpart, Xi Jinping, warned him about the consequences of sending arms Lethal to Russia. “I had a long conversation with Xi about this in the summer. I said, ‘Look, this is not a threat, it’s just a statement.’ When, in fact, the Europeans saw what was happening and the Americans saw what was happening in Russia, in Europe, guess what? Six hundred companies pulled out and left,” Biden said.
