preface
On July 24, when the United States 2024 RIMPAC military exercise was in full swing, Chinese and Russian fighters very cleverly appeared near the mainland of United States and appeared in the Alaska Air Defense Identification Zone.
Although this is not the first time that Russia fighter has appeared near the mainland of United States, it is indeed the first time for China, and in the face of such a situation, the Minister of Defense United States threw out a sentence, but he did not expect to make Taiwan experts a prophecy.
Chinese and Russian fighter planes appeared near the US mainland
On July 24, NADEC detected two Russia and two Chinese warplanes operating in international airspace near Alaska.
It has been learned that the fighters dispatched by China and Russia are the Tu-95 and H-6 strategic bombers of the Russia, and after entering the air defense identification zone in Alaska, they United States send planes to accompany them.
Naturally, it is impossible for Chinese and Russian military planes to fly within the airspace of Canada and United States, not to mention that China, unlike United States, will not take any dangerous actions even if it is close to United States territory.
This move by China and Russia once again shows the strong military strength of China and Russia, and China has always kept a low profile in the past, so the outside world is not very clear about China's military strength.
And now China's bombers come to the mainland of United States, which can be regarded as a way to demonstrate to the world, many people know the H-6 bomber, but do not know its true power, always feel that China's strategic bomber, than the United States, Russia is a lot worse.
Although before the H-20 was officially put into service, China did have some shortcomings in the field of strategic bombers, this does not mean that its power is weak.
In fact, over the years, various models of the H-6 have made great progress, and the ability to patrol near Alaska also proves that the H-6 is a real strategic bomber.
Moreover, the manufacturing cost of the H-6 will not be too high, even if there is a H-20 in the future, the H-6 will still be an important military force of our country.
Such a sea voyage can not only show our strong strategic strength, but also allow us to gain more initiative.
The Sino-Russian joint action once again reminded United States that United States is not the only one who can sail freely, and everyone knows that the United States often sends warships and fighter jets close to other countries to carry out provocations under the banner of "freedom of navigation."
Now, however, China and Russia have shown United States with concrete actions that not only United States have freedom of navigation, but we must also retaliate by letting them know what it is like to be "free to sail".
To put it simply, the reason why United States is close to China is to provoke trouble, and what China is doing is only to deter United States, so that they do not dare to burn the flames of war in East Asia and do not dare to fight China's idea.
This in itself is a righteous act, and what China and Russia have done and what United States has done are completely two different concepts.
This also means that the relationship between China and Russia has been quite tense in United States, and for this reason, the United States defense minister has personally stood up to criticize China, but he did not expect Taiwan experts to say a word.

The U.S. Secretary of Defense slammed China
The Russia Defense Ministry said that the joint patrol of Chinese and Russian military aircraft was carried out in accordance with international law and international practice, while the Chinese Defense Ministry stressed that the exercise was not aimed at a third party and had nothing to do with the current international and regional situation.
However, United States still seized this opportunity, and the North American Air Defense Command said in a "yin and yang" manner that it would continue to pay attention to the movements of other countries around North America and take countermeasures.
United States Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin also expressed his opinion, saying that Chinese and Russian fighter jets have always been in international airspace and have not entered the airspace of United States and Canada, so they do not pose any threat to them.
But if United States does not consider it a threat, how can it send planes to "accompany it"? Austin's pretended calm, compared with the nervous reaction of the US Air Force, it is simply a world of difference, and it seems that this United States, which claims to be the world's number one power, is just a bluff.
Austin also seemed to realize that he had leaked his words, and immediately changed to an aggressive attitude, saying that if such a thing happened again, the United States would be ready to meet the challenge from all sides.
Although Austin's remark was very domineering, it did not attract the attention of China and Russia, and simply thought that United States had overreacted.
Because although we are near the mainland of the United States, we are still 200 nautical miles away from the mainland of the United States, and the United States cannot be so anxious at such a distance.
If such a long distance has made the United States feel strong unease, then what should United States do when it illegally investigates us 30 nautical miles from China's sovereignty?
United States This is a double standard, a serious threat to the territory of other countries, if United States can send fighter jets to conduct reconnaissance, China can also use this as an excuse to carry out corresponding countermeasures."
Now that the joint cruise has been completed and the United States are also frightened, there is no need to pursue this matter, but this seemingly calm international dispute actually contains a lot of unusual signals, and the remarks of Taiwan scholars hit the most painful place in the heart of United States...

Taiwan experts successfully predicted
Yuan Juzheng, an expert on Taiwan, believes that United States is very unaccustomed to this kind of behavior of fighter planes from other countries arriving near the mainland.
Therefore, when the Chinese and Russian fighters approached Alaska, United States already felt offended, which is why the United States top brass was so angry, even the more moderate Austin also "warned" China and Russia.
But as we all know, United States and Canada are very good allies, but when Chinese and Russian warplanes approach the vicinity of United States mainland, Canada does not seem to be of much help.
Because China, the United States, and Russia are the three most powerful countries in the world today, if China and Russia are added together, it must be impossible for United States to take advantage of them, and even if United States is added to Canada, it will be difficult to have a head-on confrontation with China and Russia.
Therefore, the United States are also very helpless and anxious in this situation, but they have no way to do this, and can only constantly remind Chinese and Russian fighters not to enter the United States air defense identification zone.
But the situation has changed in some ways that United States unforeseen internally, and if United States and its allies continue to provoke China and Russia in the future, the number of Russian and Chinese fighter jets near United States airspace will increase rapidly.
At that time, Chinese and Russian fighters will no longer be limited to the airspace near Alaska, and sooner or later this will happen whether the United States wants it or not.
I have to admit that Professor Yuan Juzheng is indeed very insightful in this regard, and he has pointed out the United States's foreign strength and middle cadres, breaking the legend of United States' military invincibility.
In fact, the targeted confrontation between Chinese and Russian military forces and United States in the world is that the United States has repeatedly put pressure on China and Russia, carried out provocations, and forced us to respond accordingly.
The United States tried to put pressure on China and Russia through the RIMPAC exercise, but we returned the pressure to the United States in a way that the Americans did not expect.

United States so-called freedom of navigation
As we all know, in recent years, United States have always used freedom of navigation as an excuse to send warships to demonstrate and provoke around China.
In 2023, the United States Department of Defense released its previous year's "freedom of navigation" report, revealing that United States had made 29 "excessive maritime claims" to China and other countries and regions in the past year.
United States invented the concept of "international waters", which means that in the exclusive economic zones of other countries, ships of the United States Navy can sail in complete freedom "without any legal constraints".
Just like a vegetable garden, outsiders need to get permission from the owner if they want to enter, but in the United States, it is "legal" to enter other people's vegetable gardens.
This is what the United States calls "freedom of navigation", and its purpose is nothing more than to promote its own maritime supremacy, accustomed to being powerful, which obviously lacks people to educate them.
Since United States likes to flaunt its might near the mainland of other countries under the banner of "freedom of navigation", it is natural for us to go near the mainland of United States, and if United States questions it because of this, it will undoubtedly slap itself in the face.
Back in 2021, a PLA cruiser, a destroyer and a supply ship sailed into the economic zone of the Aleutian Islands in the United States, when the United States only dared to monitor it closely.
And in 2022, just a year later, China and Russia organized a joint fleet to appear near the mainland of the United States, and the United States Coast Guard paid special attention to it.
Today, the mainland's military strength is becoming stronger and stronger, and United States no longer dares to send warships or military planes into the mainland's coastal waters, and its attitude has long since changed, which just proves that United States is now a foreign power and a middle cadre.
If United States really has the strength to easily defeat China, then United States will not be so "good" accusations and two sentences, which shows that the times have changed.

epilogue
United States warships have passed through the South China Sea under the banner of "freedom of navigation" on several occasions without permission in the past, and they have also played the "Taiwan card" to deal with China.
All kinds of mistakes in the past have posed a great threat to China, and now Chinese and Russian fighter planes are circling over the Bering Strait, and it is just a "tooth for tat" for us.
