"We saw the evidence": China and the Russian Federation found a "new way" to cooperate - the Defense Ministry

According to the head of Pentagon Lloyd Austin, the flight of the bombers of the Russian Federation and the PRC towards Alaska was monitored. He was not a surprise for the US. China and Rossi military aircraft approached only 200 miles (approximately 321 km) to the coast of the US state of Alaska. About it writes Politico with reference to the statement of US Defense Minister Lloyd Austin.

The material says that for the first time, when military planes of the Russian Federation and the PRC flew so close to the United States. It is reported that such a flight of rockets was alarming in Washington and Ottawa that Beijing and Moscow have found a new way of cooperation near North America. According to Austin, Chinese and Russian bombers were tracking over most of their flight. For the Pentagon, this was not a surprise.

The material states that it is not uncommon when Russian aircraft bypassing the US airspace around Alaska, but a joint flight with China testifies to the increasingly persistent position of China and expanding his military relations with the Russian Federation. It is noted that the flight took place a few hours before US President Joe Biden announced withdrawal from the presidential race. Austin also recalled that China was supporting the illegal and unnecessary war of Russia in Ukraine.

That is why the cooperation of the Russian Federation and the PRC is so concerned about the states. "We have seen the evidence of this and we hope it will stop in the future, but we will see that it will happen and how these relationships will continue to develop," Pentagon said. Recall that Chinese H-6 rocket launchers first appeared off the coast of Alaska.
