With the continuous deepening and expansion of China-Russia joint exercises and training, the mutual trust between the two sides has been continuously enhanced, and the friendship has been constantly consolidated.

"We will continue to carry out joint operations and friendly visits, and jointly safeguard the tranquility and security of the seas in the Asia-Pacific region," the Russian commander was quoted by the release as saying.

The Chinese commander stated that holding the "Joint Sea" series of exercises is a practical measure to implement the strategic consensus of the two nations' presidents, an important manifestation of deepening the China-Russia comprehensive strategic partnership of coordination in the new era, and a firm practice of jointly defending international fairness and justice and maintaining regional peace and stability.

According to the PLA Navy, the Chinese flotilla consists of CNS Shaoxing and CNS Urumqi, two Type 052D guided missile destroyers, CNS Qiandao Lake, a Type 903 supply ship, and CNS Xihu, a comprehensive rescue ship.
