China will send troops to Russia to participate in training

The departure of the Chinese soldiers to the territory of the Russian Federation "has nothing to do with the current situation," assured the Ministry of Defense of the PRC. The maneuvers will also be attended by troops of India, Belarus and other countries. The China People's Liberation Army will send some of its troops to Russia in the near future to participate in East 2022 exercises.

Together with the Russian and Chinese military, the troops of India, Belarus, Tajikistan, Mongolia and other countries will be involved in maneuvers. This is stated in the message of the Ministry of National Defense of China of August 17. The Chinese department stated that the purpose of the exercises would be to deepen cooperation with the armed forces of maneuver countries, to increase the level of coordination and to improve the ability to withstand different threats.

"It has nothing to do with the current international and regional situation," the Chinese Defense Ministry said. We will remind, the training "East-2022" will be held at 13 landfills from August 30 to September 5. Belarus intends to send 250 of their soldiers there. Maneuvers will take place at 13 landfills of the Eastern Military District of the Russian Federation. The Ministry of Defense of Russia assures that training is not related to a full -scale war against Ukraine.
