China is expanding aid to Russia. Reaction of the United States

Chinese support for the Russian Federation is becoming more evident — [reports Bloomberg] (https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-04-06/china-is-providing-geospatial-intelligence-to-russia-us-warns). Military satellite reconnaissance and expanded space cooperation, microelectronics, optics, rocket fuel and even materials needed to make tanks are just any of the elements with which Beijing is expected to support the Russian army in the war against Ukraine. It is worth noting here the increasing trade balance between these countries. In 2023, the value of Sino-Russian trade amounted to more than $200 billion.
