The West is fucked. Trump was out last chance. Let's go Brandon!

For more than half a century, the Western media has been cursing, attacking and discrediting China in different ways, but China has become increasingly powerful, developed, civilized and wealthy at an alarming rate. No one can deny this fact. Go China 🇨🇳!

They must protect their interests over the belligerent warmongering US

Who cares navies are next to useless in modern warfare easily sunk from a long long ways way 😂😂😂😂

Russia is a country in decline there is a huge exodus of its young population escaping an increasingly authoritarian,violent state. It aggressive stance to conquer territory from smaller neighbors is goin to increase. China’s economy is due to collapse its people suffering.

So? Didn’t australia and US just do a similar exercise.

Only the start

HuXijin_GT China likes it's Junior Partner, Putin.

They’re ‘ maintaining peace and stability’ … so what’s the problem ?

Russia-China? Mates for life. Both with weird Communist ideologies? Russia can't even provide villages the basics of electricity,tapped water and sewage? They are making a statement? It's why more countries are needed with aukus type agreements. There's us then there's them?

Well done 👍 Japan imperial are bullies … karma is coming for their war crimes against China 1932 - 1945

Haha they don’t even like each other. Maybe they will their guns within.

Why are all the governments led by men turning the Pacific into a pissing contest? Chuck all these war mongering men out

This ought to scare them 😳

Why don't they all line up on opposite sides of the Pacific ocean and blow the bejesus out of oneanother till there is nothing left. Wars have become too final and incomprehensible. How does anyone win in the war for Taiwan without mutual obliteration?

When we patrol the South China Sea it’s called freedom of navigation, when China patrols the Pacific Ocean it’s the drum of war

Well this is frightening

Oh noooooo. In about 40 years they'll be half way to challenging the USA!!!! Better triple the Pentagon budget.

'Mr Putin and Mr Xi have developed increasingly close ties, based in part on their shared identities as autocratic leaders who repress all political opposition,' via Thx & Rgds ^RW

Trump would have negotiated and been firm but we would never have reached this stage, but I guess what more can you expect from a decrepit old man.

A totally normal thing with modern navies. We do plenty of joint exercises ourselves, why shouldn't China and Russia? How is this front-page news when you don't report on our own navy's exercises?

Great news!

If the US collapses time to nuke up

Joint Patrols? US must reciprocate. Appeasement will serve only to embolden adversaries & weaken allies’ resolves. Perhaps it’s time to play the Taiwan card up a notch.

Where are those subs

What do you mean 🤬🥲

They have every right to conduct freedom of navigation trials in the open sea...As does anyother country

😠😡🤬😡😠🤬
