For the First Time Ever, Chinese and Russian Warships Get Together for Joint Patrol in the Western Pacific
China and Russian warships combine for the first-ever joint patrol in the Pacific Ocean.
While Joe Biden sleeps in Delaware, the Chinese and Russians have combined for their first every joined patrol in the Pacific Ocean.
The Daily Mail reports:
Chinese and Russian warships held their first-ever joint patrol in the western part of the Pacific Ocean this weekend.
Moscow and Beijing, which staged naval cooperation drills in the Sea of Japan earlier in October, have cultivated closer military and diplomatic ties in recent years at a time when their relations with the West have soured.
The naval manoeuvres were watched closely by Japan, which said earlier this week that a group of ten vessels from China and Russia sailed through the Tsugaru Strait that separates Japan’s main island of Honshu and its northern one of Hokkaido.
