Photo: Reuters The week-long exercise between the Chinese and Russian armies in northwestern China shows they are pushing for Nato-level interoperability – opening up the possibility for joint military campaigns to counter their common rival the US, military observers said. The 10,000 troops, from the PLA’s Western Theatre Command and the Eastern Military District of Russia, wrapped up the Zapad/Interaction-2021 exercises in Ningxia region on Friday. The drills gave the PLA an opportunity to test its newest weapons, as well as showing an ability to work coherently with the Russian forces. For the first time, the two militaries used a joint command and control system. The Russian troops were integrated into larger Chinese formations and carried out operations planned by the PLA, according to a statement by China’s defence ministry on Wednesday.
