The Russian and Chinese air forces recently conducted joint air patrols over the East China Sea and the Sea of Japan. According to reports, the cruise involved a number of aircraft and fighter jets, demonstrating the close cooperation between China and Russia in the military field. This joint cruise not only conformed to international law and practice, but also did not infringe on the sovereignty of any other country.
However, some countries seem to be concerned about this. The South Korean Air Force and the Japan Air Self-Defense Force may have been upset by the cruise and tried to see it as a threat. However, the cooperation between China and Russia is based on the principles of mutual respect and mutual benefit, and aims to maintain regional peace and stability.
In recent years, joint cruise operations between the Chinese and Russian militaries have become quite frequent, and have developed to the stage of landing and maintaining at each other's airfields. This demonstrates the high level of strategic trust between China and Russia, and the commitment of both sides to strengthen cooperation to address regional and global challenges.
The current international situation is undergoing some changes, and the behavior of the United States is one of the biggest uncertainties. Due to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, the United States has found itself in an embarrassing situation on the issue of Russia and Ukraine, while European aid to Ukraine is also decreasing. Against this backdrop, China and Russia have once again demonstrated their "back-to-back" cooperative relationship, which is of vital significance for stabilizing the current international situation and adding certainty to peace and stability.
The joint patrol of Chinese and Russian strategic bombers is a warning to the adventurous ambitions of the United States. In the past less than a month, Washington has repeatedly released rumors that the US military may be sent directly to fight in Ukraine. However, the military cooperation between China and Russia is for defensive purposes, and both sides are on high alert and will respond appropriately to any provocations.
This joint cruise is also a deterrent to certain countries in the Asia-Pacific region. The formation of Chinese and Russian bombers passed through the air defense identification zones of Japan and South Korea, reminding these countries not to act rashly. After all, China and Russia are both nuclear powers with strong military power, which is not something that these countries can easily provoke.
In short, the joint cruise of Chinese and Russian strategic bombers demonstrates the close cooperation and strategic mutual trust between China and Russia in the military field. This action is not only in line with international law and practice, but is also of vital significance for stabilizing the current international situation and adding certainty to peace and stability.
