Chinese warships arrive in Russia’s far east for joint Pacific naval exercise
“Chinese warships have sailed into the main port of Russia’s Pacific Fleet ahead of a joint naval exercise this week in the Sea of Japan – also known as the East Sea, according to Russian media.”
“The ‘Joint Sea 2025’ drill would be followed by the sixth joint maritime patrol in the Pacific, China’s defence ministry said on Wednesday.”
” ‘This is an arrangement within the annual cooperation plan between the Chinese and Russian militaries. It is not targeted at any third party, nor is it related to the current international and regional situation,’ Zhang said in Beijing.”
