The latest news from the United States seems to have confirmed that Russia has officially joined hands with China to intervene in the Taiwan issue
According to the South China Morning Post of Hong Kong, on the 2nd, when attending the hearing of the Senate Military Committee, US Intelligence Director Haines pointed out that the United States saw for the first time that China and Russia conducted joint exercises on Taiwan issues, including the "attack on Taiwan"!
China and Russia began joint military exercises more than 10 years ago. Since 2018, China has never been absent from the series of joint exercises code named "Oriental" carried out by the eastern military region of Russia; The closest Sino Russian joint military exercise to the Taiwan Strait was the year before last, and the exercise site was in the East China Sea.
Haines claimed that the Chinese mainland obviously wants to work with Russia to solve the Taiwan issue, and from the current situation, it seems that there is no reason why the two sides will not cooperate;
This situation makes Americans very worried. They worry that this is a clear signal that China and Russia will once again upgrade cooperation.
Haines pointed out that the current relationship between China and Russia is defined as "friendship without ceiling". It can be seen that there will be more and more cooperation between the two sides, which occurs in every department, including politics, economy, military and science and technology.
The Republican Senator Ronz believes that this situation means that the United States may face a second front if a conflict breaks out with one of them!
Haines confirmed this view. In fact, this event is by no means accidental.
Previously, after Blinken ended his visit to China, the State Council under his charge and the Ministry of Finance under Yellen jointly imposed sanctions on 20 enterprises from mainland China and Hong Kong, on the grounds that these companies had assisted Russia and supported the recovery of Russian military production capacity.
The United States is pressing, and China and Russia will only be more closely linked!
After this report was published, many western military experts expressed their doubts.
They believed that even before the war, Russia's influence in the Indo Pacific region was limited because of its economic weakness, let alone being mired in war. Therefore, such joint exercises may be more symbolic than practical, and Russia could not provide much help for China's "attack on Taiwan" at the military level.
Admittedly, this view is very reasonable. At present, Russia still needs the strong support of China's supply chain to deal with front-line wars, let alone to open up a new battlefield in the Western Pacific.
However, it must be pointed out that once Russia and China stand together to solve the Taiwan issue, it will definitely be a nightmare for the United States and the West.
first The United States and Japan are the biggest "stumbling blocks" for China to accomplish the cause of reunification; The fulcrum for the US military intervention in the Taiwan issue is also Japan, which is the logistic support base of the US military.
Once the war breaks out, Russia can launch military operations against Japan in its eastern waters, which is enough to hold Japan's attention and make it pay priority to its homeland security, so that the pressure of our PLA on the front battlefield of the Taiwan Sea will be significantly reduced.
secondly, In the open sea operations in the Western Pacific, in addition to the influence of Russian attack nuclear submarines and strategic bombers, it is enough for Russia to supply China with key strategic resources, such as food and crude oil, during special periods.
last, As long as Russia increases its offensive on the front line of Donbas, it will play a great role in helping China's military operations, because it will force fundamental differences of interest between Europe and the United States; One of them wants to give priority to "aid Uzbekistan", while the other wants to give priority to "protect Taiwan". Such disagreement seems to be a set of unsolvable contradictions.
Therefore, the first joint exercise involving Taiwan between China and Russia is of great symbolic significance and practical significance.
Biden and his subordinates, such as Blinken, are actually implementing a very stupid policy!
They believe that by putting pressure on China, they can force China to compromise and thus cut off Russia's support. But this fantastic idea will never work. On the contrary, it will promote closer ties between the two countries.
A very simple logic is in front of us. If China's relatively secret help to Russia in the past can help Russia stabilize the front-line situation, how long can Ukraine last after China publicly aids Russia?
A clever politician should know that China's support for Russia is an inextricable political understanding, a subtle compromise, and a constraint on both sides.
Once this tacit understanding is broken and the situation that China is worried about happens, then China will have no worries and will certainly increase and speed up its assistance! This also means that the Americans will pay a greater price to support Ukraine in this war.
Now, since Americans have taken the lead again, let's not blame China for its heavy fists
