The American edition of Defense One said that the Russian military is in their best shape over the past decades and stated that the coordination of Moscow and China’s strategic efforts undermines the US advantage in the military sphere.
It is noted that more frequent conducting joint teachings of Russia and the PRC speaks of the alarming level of coordination between countries. The authors of the article did not agree with the opinion of some analysts that Russian-Chinese relations are superficial and called the deepening coordination of strategic positions.
“Russian military has become more capable, mobile than over the past decades. Moscow has achieved success in areas such as the development of ordinary long-range missiles,” writes the publication.
The authors of the article concluded that the assumptions that any conflicts with China and Russia would not arise at the same time, are becoming more doubtful, despite the hopes of the United States.
