“#Russia, China hold large-scale joint military drills<\/strong>”

MOSCOW, Aug 10 \u2013 Russia and China are holding a large-scale joint military exercise in north-central China involving more than 10,000 troops, Russia\u2019s defense ministry said on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

The Sibu\/Cooperation-2021 drills in China\u2019s Ningxia region are being watched for signs that China and Russia are expanding military cooperation as they spar with the West.<\/p>\n

Russia\u2019s Kommersant news<\/a>paper said the drills taking place until Friday marked the first time Russian soldiers would use Chinese weapons. Russia and China have conducted drills since 2005.<\/p>\n

Moscow sent Sukhoi Su-30SM fighter aircraft, motorized rifle units and air defense systems to the exercise that was focused on counter-terrorism, the defense ministry said in a statement.<\/p>\n

The drills come as the Taliban has gained ground in Afghanistan where security has deteriorated as the United States withdraws its troops after two decades of war, creating a security headache for Moscow.<\/p>\n

Separately, Russia on Tuesday completed joint drills in Tajikistan with Uzbek and Tajik forces near the Afghan border. Moscow also said it was bulking up its military base in Tajikistan with assault rifles and other weapons.<\/p>\n

Moscow pivoted to China in 2014 as its political ties with the West sank to post Cold-War lows over the annexation of Crimea from Ukraine. China is Russia\u2019s biggest trade partner.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
