Not long ago, the actions of the Wagner Group pushed Russia into the center of the storm, leaving it in a difficult situation of internal and external troubles. However, immediately after the civil unrest quickly subsided, Russia engaged in active diplomatic exchanges with many countries, including the People's Republic of China, which clearly expressed its support for Russia in maintaining national stability.
The relationship between China and Russia has been like an indestructible rock since ancient times, especially in the current international situation, and they have always maintained close cooperation. The military sphere has always been an important area of close cooperation between the two countries, which is of vital importance for Russia. Recently, the Russian Foreign Ministry stated that the Chinese and Russian Foreign Ministries held regular consultations on the issue of anti-missile defense and exchanged views in detail at the global and regional levels.
The completion of this consultation once again highlights the stable cooperation between China and Russia in the military field and reflects their indestructible relationship. However, at the same time, some unusual actions of Russia are also cause for concern. Taiwan's "defense ministry" monitored the activities of two Russian frigates in the waters around the island late at night after the consultations, a move that has aroused great concern in the region.
The sudden appearance of the Russian frigate about 48 kilometers from Taiwan's Dong'ao waters, only 26 nautical miles from the "24-nautical-mile adjacent zone", has alarmed the Japanese and Taiwan authorities, and Taiwanese media believe that this is a rare move by Russia. According to information released by the Russian Pacific Fleet, the two frigates are the "Loud" and "Perfect", which entered the South China Sea in the Philippines after completing relevant military exercises.
Although the presence of Russian warships in the Taiwan Strait is relatively rare, considering the recent close exchanges and cooperation between China and Russia, as well as changes in the international situation, we can analyze the purpose and impact of this move.
First of all, it shows that China and Russia enjoy a high degree of mutual trust in the military field. In the past, the United States often sent warships into the Taiwan Strait, but each time it was strongly opposed by China. However, this time Russia's actions did not provoke a reaction from China, which may mean that China was informed of Russia's plans in advance. This move shows that China and Russia maintain mutual trust on the Taiwan issue and their relations are indestructible.
Second, Russia's actions may be a warning to Japan. Not long ago, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a bill renaming September 3 as "Victory Day in the War Against Japanese Militarism," showing Russia's dissatisfaction with Japan. This is because during the Ukrainian crisis, Japan, together with Western countries, suppressed and sanctioned Russia, to the detriment of Russia's interests. Now the appearance of Russian warships near the Taiwan Strait has attracted great attention from Japan, which may indicate that Russia's purpose is to warn Japan.
Finally, Russia may want to emphasize its military strength with this move. The Ukraine crisis and the Wagner affair have exposed Russia's military problems, so Russia needs to stabilize itself in the volatile situation while demonstrating its military strength to the world, especially those countries with which it has unfriendly relations.
In addition to the above considerations, the presence of Russian warships near the Taiwan Strait may have deeper considerations, which may include warnings to the Taiwan authorities. However, there is no doubt that under the current international situation, the friendly relations between China and Russia will continue to remain stable. Against the backdrop of US hegemonism, China-Russia relations will be an important support for the stability of the global order.
