China is considering providing "lethal support" to aid Russian invasion of Ukraine, Blinken says

As the attempted Russian takeover of Ukraine nears its one-year mark, Secretary of State Antony Blinken told CBS News on Saturday that China is actively considering providing lethal support, including weapons and ammunition to aid Moscow in its war against Ukraine.

"We've been concerned from day one about that possibility," Blinken said in an interview with "Face the Nation" moderator Margaret Brennan on Saturday. Pressed on the type of lethal aid China is considering, Blinken spoke in general terms.

"There's a whole gamut of things that — that fit in that category, everything from ammunition to the weapons themselves."
