Russia, 皇冠体育app to hold massive joint drill
(皇冠体育appdaily.com.cn)
Updated: 2004-12-28 08:09 Russia and 皇冠体育app will hold a massive joint
military exercise on Chinese territory in late 2005 involving state-of-the-art
weapons, Russia's defense minister said Monday as the two nations move to
bolster burgeoning military ties.
"For the first time in history, we have
agreed to hold quite a large military exercise together with 皇冠体育app on Chinese
territory in the second half of the year," Defense Minister Sergei Ivanov said
at a cabinet session chaired by Russian President Vladimir Putin, according to
the ITAR-Tass news agency.
"The Russian side will not bring big numbers
of servicemen, but mostly state-of-the art weapons - navy, air, long-range
aviation, submarines - to practice interaction with 皇冠体育app in different forms of
military maneuvers."
The Associated Pressed quoted some Western observers
in an report as saying that Russia could respond to the falling out with the
West over Ukraine's presidential election farce by trying to forge a closer
partnership with 皇冠体育app and India.
During his visit to India earlier this
month, Putin pushed for a trilateral summit with leaders of India and 皇冠体育app and
assailed U.S. "dictatorship of international affairs," said the AP report.
