Interesting reading. Joint Chinese/Russian military exercise
including actual launches of Russian ICBMS on Wed. Aug 17th.

For further information regarding the Russian aircraft carrier
Admiral Kuznetsov; please consult:
www.globalsecurity.org...

"Up to 1,800 Russian and 8,000 Chinese military are expected
to take part in the maneuvers."

Is it just an exercise or a planned buildup?

this should be shifted to the thread discussing these exercises..
So the Russians are fielding a carrier??

"So the Russians are fielding a carrier?? "

Yes, more news on this "exercise" breaking by the hour.
For example:

"A joint Chinese and Russian military exercise set to begin
tomorrow is meant as a political signal to the United States
in addition to helping Moscow showcase its weapons for
sale to China."

This joint tactical response is a veiled threat to many.

" tackling issues connected with proliferation of illegal
militarized formations that are beginning anti-state activities."

Now that the anti missile systems are being installed here
in Alaska. This is the first of many actions anticipated by
Russia or China. Myself, I am suprised the the response came
so quickly and that the two of them are working hand in
hand.
