China and Russia emphasized the strong ties between them at the International Military Forum held in Beijing on the 30th, and strongly discouraged the United States even as the US-China summit is expected to take place in November.
In a speech at the Xiangshan Discussion Forum, Vice Chairman of the Central Military Commission of the Communist Party of China, Zhang Yiayu pointed out that “certain countries continue to cause problems around the world.” He implicitly criticized the United States, saying it “deliberately creates chaos, interferes in regional affairs and other countries’ internal affairs, and incites color revolutions.”

Russian Defense Minister Shoigu, who attended Farum, said, “The United States is constantly working to maintain its hegemony, which will soon disappear.” Russia is under sanctions from the United States and the European Union (EU) over its invasion of Ukraine, which began in February 2022.
Both statements reiterate the close partnership that has been formed between Russia and China, which launched an armed invasion of Ukraine.
Just before the invasion began, Chinese President Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin declared “boundless” friendship. China has since provided diplomatic and economic support to Russia, which is facing sanctions from Western countries. While increasing exports to Russia, it ensured a stable supply of Russian-produced fossil fuels.
