Germany is responding to reporting that China has hosted Russian military training. On May 20, the German newspaper Die Welt reported that the Chinese army had secretly trained several hundred Russian soldiers on Chinese territory. The reports describe the training as having taken place without public notice, and they link the training activity to broader developments in Russia–China security cooperation.
The available account from NDTV focuses on the German reaction to the claim, using language describing the reports as deeply concerning. However, it does not provide additional independent verification of the allegations, details on the training program, dates beyond the report timing, or confirmation from either China or Russia.
As presented across the information provided, the core issue is the existence of the Die Welt report and the fact that Germany is engaging with it publicly. The reporting raises questions about transparency in military cooperation, while the evidence and official responses from involved governments are not included in the sources supplied here.
