As Ukrinform previously reported, Wang Yiwei, Director of the Institute of International Affairs at Renmin University of China, told Ukrinform that China does not want Russia to be defeated in the war against Ukraine - not only out of concern over growing U.S. pressure on Beijing, but primarily due to fears about losing control over Russia's nuclear arsenal and the potential global threats that could result.
