Russia and China demonstrate geostrategic unity on the Taiwan question. Just one day after the extensive Chinese military drills off the coasts of the democratic island state, senior Chinese military officials received Russian Defense Minister Andrei Beloussov in Beijing. „The military departments of Russia and China are united in their assessments of global processes, and they have a common understanding of what needs to be done in the current situation,“ the Russian Ministry of Defense quoted Beloussov as saying.
