The joint military exercise between China and Russia was among the remarkable developments of the world agenda. The Chinese and Russian Air Forces conducted a joint air exercise today over the Sea of Japan, the East China Sea and the Western Pacific, the Chinese Defense Ministry said in a statement. The joint strategic patrol was “part of the annual military cooperation plan between China and Russia,” the statement said.
CHINA’S ATTITUDE IN THE RUSSIA-UKRAINE WAR
Unlike Western countries, Beijing, which does not condemn Russia’s attacks on Ukraine, does not describe the situation as “occupation”.
A FIRST SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THE WAR
The joint military exercise between China and Russia is the first joint exercise between the two countries since February 24, when Russia launched its attacks on Ukraine.
ATTENTION TIMING
It was also noteworthy that the first joint exercise between China and Russia since the beginning of the war was held during the US President Joe Biden’s visit to Japan.
Washington-Beijing relations have once again been strained after Biden said that China would respond militarily if it attacked Taiwan.
In the statement made today by the South Korean General Staff, it was announced that 2 Chinese and 4 Russian warplanes entered the Korean Air Defense and Identification Area (KADIZ) without informing. (UAV)
