В понедельник (21 сентября) в России начались стратегические учения "Кавказ-2020". В Минобороны заявили, что в учениях задействовано более 80 тысяч человек.

Учения проходят на нескольких полигонах Южного военного округа по всему Кавказскому региону и югу России от Черного до Каспийского моря.

Истребители Южного военного округа несут боевое дежурство в рамках начавшихся в понедельник учений «Кавказ-2020», сообщает пресс-служба Минобороны.

"Экипажи истребителей Су-27 и Су-30СМ Южного военного округа несут боевое дежурство противовоздушной обороны на оперативных аэродромах в Республике Крым, Краснодарской, Ставропольской и Ростовской областях в рамках стратегических командно-штабных учений "Кавказ-2020", об этом сообщили в министерстве.

В учениях, помимо России, будут задействованы воинские части из Армении, Белоруссии, Китая, Мьянмы и Пакистана. В учениях примут участие не более 1000 иностранных военнослужащих. Представители Азербайджана, Индонезии, Ирана, Казахстана, Таджикистана и Шри-Ланки выступят в качестве наблюдателей. Ранее сообщалось, что в учениях должны были участвовать вооруженные формирования из Абхазии и Южной Осетии, но в сегодняшнем заявлении о них не упоминалось.

Учения продлятся до 26 сентября.

Military parade to be held in Beijing as China and Russia reaffirm close ties

Chinese leader Xi Jinping welcomed Russian President Vladimir Putin as an “old friend” as the two began a series of meetings Tuesday at a time when their countries face both overlapping and differing challenges from the United States. Relations between China and Russia have deepened in recent years, particularly after the Russian invasion of Ukraine in early 2022. According to AP, Putin addressed Xi as “dear friend” and said that Moscow’s ties with Beijing are “at an unprecedentedly high level.” Following their formal talks, they planned to have another meeting over tea with some of their top aides. The talks come the day after both attended a summit of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization in the nearby Chinese city of Tianjin, and the day before a grand Chinese military parade in Beijing to mark the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II.
