China-Russia Strategic Partnership Deepens Amid South China Sea Naval Exercises and BRI Expansion

Published on 4.29.25

  The escalating tensions in the Asia-Pacific region have raised concerns about regional stability, with China's growing military ties with Russia being a notable example of this trend. This cooperation is evident in their joint naval exercises, which were conducted in the South China Sea. China and Russia have also reaffirmed their commitment to countering what they see as US-led unilateralism in international relations. Their joint condemnation of US sanctions against Russia reflects this stance. The deepening partnership between China and Russia has significant implications for regional dynamics, particularly with regards to trade relations. As the two nations continue to strengthen their economic ties through initiatives such as the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), they are also working together to challenge what they see as US dominance in international trade.
