#CHINE 🇨🇳 - #RUSSIE 🇷🇺 : MILITARY MANEUVERS TO CHALLENGE THE WORLD ORDER?
Since Sunday, China and Russia have been conducting joint military exercises in the Sea of Japan, dubbed "Joint Sea-2025." The objective: to strengthen their cooperation in the face of American influence. These maneuvers include naval, ground, and air operations near Vladivostok, a strategic port close to Japan.
Officially, these exercises are not aimed at anyone. But in reality, they send a clear message: Beijing and Moscow are tightening their ties in response to the pressure from the United States and its allies (NATO, AUKUS, Quad). China is facing tensions surrounding Taiwan, while Russia is still enduring sanctions related to the war in Ukraine.
During these exercises, new technologies such as hypersonic missiles or drones are likely to be tested. The goal: to learn to work together on the ground and to showcase their joint military power.
These activities are concerning to the United States, Japan, South Korea, and Australia, who see them as a provocation. There are fears of rising tensions in Asia, particularly around Taiwan.
So, towards a China-Russia military alliance? It’s not official yet, but the two countries are increasingly cooperating: cybersecurity, arms sales, Arctic routes, etc.
👉 And what do you think?
Is this alliance a necessary counterbalance to the West or the beginning of a new Cold War?
And should African countries remain neutral or take a stand?
