Russian and Chinese air forces took part in joint military exercises in the Asia-Pacific region, the Russian defence ministry said, as Moscow and Beijing sought to put on a united face to an increasingly hostile West. Russian strategic missile carriers TU-95 and Chinese Xian H-6 flew over the Sea of Japan and the East China Sea for eight hours, according to a statement from Moscow. “The Russian Air Force and the Air Force of the People’s Liberation Army of China conducted another joint air patrol in the Asia-Pacific region,” the ministry said in a statement.
