Russia-China exercise 'aimed at the United States' Moscow announced last week that Russian and Chinese military forces would participate in joint exercises. Russian Defense Minister Sergei Ivanov said the first-ever exercises could involve strategic nuclear forces — a sign that both Moscow and Beijing are preparing to collaborate in a nuclear war against the United States. The exercises will be held in China during the second half of the year. "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 China in different forms of military maneuvers," Ivanov said. Pavel Felgenhauer, a Russian military analyst, said the exercise is a signal of Moscow's irritation toward the United States. "It's a symbolic gesture aimed at the United States, intended to show that Russia has other allies," Felgenhauer said. ------------------------ Yahoo!
