The fleet of ships participating in the joint naval cruise of the Chinese and Russian navies arrived in Vladivostok, Russia on the 29th. The joint cruise came to an end. The fleet of ships for the joint cruise consists of the Chinese Navy's missile destroyers Kaifeng, the Anshan ship, the integrated supply ship Coco Xili Lake, and the Russian Navy frigate “Rinriye”. The formation set sail from Qingdao, Shandong on July 13, and sailed through the Miyako Strait, the Efu Strait, and the Soya Strait to carry out joint cruises in the western Pacific Ocean, the Sea of Okhotsk, and the Sea of Japan. During the cruise, China and Russia jointly carried out exercises on subjects such as mutual landing of shipborne helicopters, joint anti-terrorism, humanitarian rescue, and on-site inspection and arrest. The Chinese ships are also taking into account the immediate sea and air situation, setting up a plot on an ad hoc basis and carrying out a number of practical course exercises. This joint cruise is an arrangement within the annual cooperation plan between the Chinese and Russian armies. The purpose is to enhance the joint operation capabilities of the two armies and jointly address maritime security threats. It has nothing to do with the current international or regional situation.
