(ANSA-AFP) - BERLIN, MAR 2 - German Chancellor Olaf Scholz on Thursday urged Beijing not to arm Russia in its war against Ukraine, following US claims China was considering such a move.

"My message to Beijing is clear: use your influence in Moscow to push for the withdrawal of Russian troops," Scholz said in a speech to the German parliament. "And do not supply weapons to the aggressor Russia." (ANSA-AFP).
