China is Wargaming an Invasion of Russia

Video Summary

China has been running military drills on its northeastern border with Russia, according to a report by an Australian newspaper, The Claxson. The report claims that China’s air force and army have been conducting secretive exercises in the Russian border areas since February, including live fire exercises. This has raised expert concerns that China may be considering a push into Russian territory.

China shares its entire northeastern border with Russia, and the exercises suggest that China is practicing military operations in Russian territory. The report notes that Beijing has ordered stress tests to assess the impact of economic sanctions on China’s economy, which relies heavily on exports to the US and Europe.

The article speculates that China may be waiting for the right moment to seize some of Russia’s coastline, which is thought to have oil and gas deposits. China has historically claimed sovereignty over the territory and has been seeking to expand its borders.

The author believes that if a conflict were to break out between NATO and Russia, China would not come to Russia’s defense, as it is clear that Russia would suffer significant losses. Instead, China would likely wait until Russia’s government collapses or becomes embroiled in a civil war, allowing China to pick sides and potentially gain control over disputed territory.
