In response, the US angrily condemned the move as “actions of aggressors looking to start a nuclear war that will cause the extinction of mankind”, and arranged for missile launches off the coast of their neighbouring country.
Oh wait, wrong country…
You will learn nothing from this.
Northern Command confirmed the combined Chinese and Russian naval patrol, telling the Journal: “Air and maritime assets under our commands conducted operations to assure the defense of the United States and Canada. The patrol remained in international waters and was not considered a threat.”
I heard you the first time.
They called it “highly provocative” (i.e. actions of aggressors) and sailed their warboats around as a show of force (basically “arranged for missile launches”). The parallels are pretty damn clear, even if the US’s response was obscured with mealy mouthed politicking.
Retired military person called it provocative. Not the military.
At a certain level “retired” is just for plausible deniability.
Lol. Maybe in authoritarian China. In the US that’s just a sound byte of no influence.
The ships traveled close to Alaska’s Aleutian Islands, but never entered U.S. territorial waters. The US threatened to nuke no one . No scene was caused. In other news…
Ok that was always allowed!
Then why is the US angry about it?
