“The
ongoing Russia-China exercise in the Mediterranean Joint Sea-2015
(its active phase began on Monday) has drawn a far greater response
from the West than any of the previous such events.”
“Up to
now such drills invariably took place in the Pacific Ocean close to
the borders of China and Russia. This time, it has been moved to the
Mediterranean. Russian Defense Ministry officials deny that the Joint
Sea-2015 exercise has a political side to it.”
“Some
Western experts, though, suspect that the emergence of China’s
naval ships side by side with Russian ones in the Mediterranean will
be a counter-response to tighter military cooperation between the
United States and Japan.”
