China’s participation in common military drills is not related to the current international and regional situation, the Ministry stressed in its announcement.

As stated in the announcement, the aim is to deepen the practical and friendly cooperation of the participating armies, expand the level of strategic cooperation between them and enhance their capability of countering security threats.
