Russia today announced joint naval maneuvers with China. Several Russian warships would take part in the maneuvers, which are scheduled to take place in the East China Sea between Wednesday and December 27, the Russian Defense Ministry said today. The main objectives of the exercises are to "strengthen naval cooperation" between Russia and China and "maintain peace and stability in the Asia-Pacific region".
The Russian Ministry of Defense also said that the exercises would also include the firing of rockets, artillery and the defense against submarines. According to the information, Russia wants to use a missile cruiser, a frigate and two corvettes...

The exercises in the East China Sea off China's eastern coast north of Taiwan and west of Okinawa.
They start Wednesday and will last until the Tuesday afterwards December 27th.
reminds me of Daniel 11:40 in the bible ...”New International Version
“At the time of the end the king of the South will engage him in battle, and the king of the North will storm out against him with chariots and cavalry and a great fleet of ships. He will invade many countries and sweep through them like a flood.”
Another reason Russia is NOT a friend to the West and cannot be allowed to rampage in Europe.
Probably the attack on Taiwan has been delayed by Russian failures to date.
Others on this enemies list are Iran, N Korea and Syria.
The exercise would be a fine time for China to start their attack to retake Siberia. The Russian ships would be exposed and at sea and easily destroyed by the PLAN.
Hilarious!
The two countries doing the most to disrupt world peace are the ones claiming to protect it
the BS never stops with these malicious monsters ... where will they cause misery next?
I don’t see things that way these exercises right in the face of the US and Japan.
The location near to Japan and the US military bases there.
Well, at least they’re not conducting joint operations in the Black Sea. That’s been a little dangerous for the Russians...
The East China Sea sounds nice and peaceful.
There was some idiot that suggested China would end the conflict if they parked on the Russian border for a single day.
I swear, Zeepers are simple-minded.
No surprise though. If you sanction and alienate nations, they form alliances together.
What are you smoking? Why should Russia be a friend of the West? This ship sailed.
The more money the Russians waste on their navy, the better.
Foolish and corrupt neocons pushed Russia into the arms of China with their corruption and blind neocon fantasies.
Count the BRICS and Turks in that camp too. They are making enemies of everyone.
Neocon and their MIC supporters are the new Marxists, pushing a globalist, cult-like ideology, with them at the top, of course.
“Probably the attack on Taiwan has been delayed by Russian failures to date.”
Wind up Williams is wrong again. Just like the former state of Ukraine; once China feels threatened by the US using it as a launching pad for weapons aimed at them, Taiwan will be in big trouble.
This could just be a message to Japan, which has just recently announced it is planning to grow its military.
Yes.
This can’t be! Russia only stands for truth and goodness and freedom and light!
Chinese and Russian ships. Hope they brought extra sea going tugboats. Lol.
.
Ooohhh! A neocon enemies list. Neocon clowns have ignorantly driven Russia into China's arms and, if we do not back off, we will be at war with both countries in the two front war, which the Pentagon has already admittedly that we cannot win. Geniuses led by Biden. Sad.
I remember oh so not long ago when the Russian aircraft carrier (their 1 carrier) had to be towed into port in the Med because it was unable to propel itself.
