Russia and China have completed naval drills in the East China Sea on Wednesday (December 28) after a week of joint exercises, Reuters reports.
The exercise included a drill on capturing enemy submarines with depth charges, as well as firing artillery at warships, Chinese state media CCTV showed.
The December 21-27 exercises, entitled "Maritime Interaction-2022," included Russia's Pacific Fleet and were carried out in waters off Zhoushan and Taizhou in China's Zhejiang Province, China's official Xinhua news agency said.
Once the leader in the global Communist hierarchy, Russia after the 1991 collapse of the Soviet Union is now a junior partner to a resurgent China which already leads in some 21st century technologies.
