Chinese and Russian defense ministers call: military cooperation is not aimed at third countries, China-Russia relations have changed significantly again Recently, the defense ministers of China and Russia held an important phone call, which has attracted widespread attention. During the call, Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu made clear the nature of Sino-Russian cooperation in six words, that is, "not against third countries." This statement means that the Russian side no longer uses words such as "alliance" and "ally" to describe Sino-Russian relations, but emphasizes that Sino-Russian military cooperation is not aimed at a third party. This change in attitude is of great significance to Sino-Russian relations as well as to the international situation. First of all, this statement marks a change in Moscow's attitude on issues of bilateral relations and Sino-Russian military cooperation. In the past, Russia often used words such as "alliance" and "ally" to describe Sino-Russian relations, giving the outside world the impression of a military alliance.
However, China has always adhered to the principles of non-alignment, non-confrontation and non-targeting of any third party, and has set China-Russia relations as a model for a new type of international relations. Now, the Russian side has made it clear that military cooperation is not aimed at third parties, which shows Moscow's recognition and respect for China's position. This will play a positive role in further strengthening Sino-Russian relations. Second, this statement also provides greater space for the development of Sino-Russian relations. In the past, Sino-Russian relations were somewhat limited due to Russia's military alliance tendencies. However, now the Russian side has made it clear that military cooperation is not directed against third parties, which means that the two sides can cooperate more freely in various fields. In particular, in the field of military technology, China and Russia can cooperate more deeply to jointly enhance their military strength and safeguard the strategic security of the two countries. This will open up broader prospects for the development of Sino-Russian relations.
In addition, this statement has also had an important impact on the international situation. At present, the international situation is complex and volatile, and regional conflicts are frequent. Against this background, China and Russia, as world powers, shoulder the responsibility of maintaining regional and world peace and stability. Russia's clear statement that military cooperation is not aimed at any third party will help dispel the international community's misunderstanding and suspicion about Sino-Russian cooperation and increase the international community's trust in Sino-Russian cooperation. At the same time, it will also help maintain peace and stability in the region and the world and reduce the possibility of conflict and war. All in all, the phone call between the Chinese and Russian defense ministers made it clear that military cooperation is not aimed at third countries, marking another significant shift in Sino-Russian relations. This statement is of great significance to the development of Sino-Russian relations, the stability of the international situation, and the maintenance of world peace.
We hope that China and Russia will further strengthen cooperation and make greater contributions to maintaining regional and world peace and stability. China's defense minister's phone call: The indestructible China-Russia military cooperation The news of the China's defense minister's phone call once again demonstrated the strong and close relationship between China and Russia. Shoigu said that the military cooperation between China and Russia is not aimed at third parties, stressing that relations between the two countries are developing steadily in all directions. This statement not only responds to the rumors and smears of the United States and the West, but also demonstrates the momentum of mutual trust and cooperation between China and Russia. At the same time, we also need to recognize that China-US relations still need to lay a solid foundation. During the talks, Sullivan clearly defined the U.S.-China relationship as "competition" and said that he would continue to interfere with China in the field of technology. The attitude of the United States has changed, but we still need to observe its actual actions.
Shoigu's statement is in line with China's position and has played a positive role in promoting Sino-Russian cooperation. China and Russia have always adhered to the policy of non-alignment, respected each other's core interests and security concerns, and are committed to maintaining regional and world peace and stability. The in-depth cooperation between the two sides in military cooperation will further enhance the strategic coordination capability of the two countries and make greater contributions to regional and world peace and development. However, we also need to be vigilant against the bad intentions of the United States and Western countries on the Taiwan Strait issue. Recently, the United States and some of its allies have frequently expressed support for the Taiwan issue and even tried to provoke confrontation. Such unilateral acts seriously violate the one-China principle and undermine peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait. We should resolutely oppose any interference in China's internal affairs by any external forces and safeguard national unity and territorial integrity.
Behind the phone call between the Chinese defense ministers is the profound friendship and mutual trust between the two peoples. The relationship between China and Russia has gone beyond the traditional strategic partnership and has become a comprehensive strategic partnership of coordination. The deepening of exchanges and cooperation between the two sides in the political, economic, military, cultural and other fields has brought more opportunities and stability to the two countries and the world. We should remain optimistic about the future of Sino-Russian cooperation. With the changes in the world pattern and the complexity of the international situation, Sino-Russian cooperation will face new challenges, but it will also usher in broader space and deeper cooperation. We look forward to China and Russia continuing to strengthen high-level exchanges, pushing bilateral relations to new heights, further deepening cooperation in various fields, jointly addressing global challenges, and making greater contributions to building a community with a shared future for mankind.
In short, the phone call between the Chinese defense ministers once again demonstrated the solidity and closeness of Sino-Russian relations. Whether it is in the face of rumors and smears by the United States and the West, or in response to changes in the international situation, China and Russia have always maintained a high degree of consistency and close cooperation. Such profound friendship and mutual trust will inject more positive energy into the peace and development of the two countries and the world. We look forward to more breakthroughs and achievements in future cooperation between China and Russia.
