Russia and China have launched joint naval drills near Japan in a direct response to former President Trump’s deployment of U.S. nuclear submarines. The “Joint Sea-2025” exercise features advanced anti-submarine warfare, air defense, and missile drills. Four Chinese warships, including guided-missile destroyers, are participating alongside Russian vessels. The display of force comes amid rising U.S.-China tensions and growing alignment between Moscow and Beijing. As Trump boasts of U.S. military strength, his move may have triggered an even bolder alliance challenging American dominance in the Pacific.
