Shoigu: the United States seeks to secure an advantage in the military confrontation with Russia and China

Minister of Defence of the Russian Federation Sergey Shoigu said that the United States in an effort to build up an advantage in the military confrontation with Russia and China declared them the main strategic adversaries. The civil servant said this at the XI Moscow Conference on International Security.

Sergei Shoigu said that Moscow and Beijing have been artificially declared strategic adversaries of the United States. According to the Russian defence minister, using such a pretext, Washington plans to build up its military potential.

“The experience of Russian-American interaction shows that military contacts make practical sense only when there is a political will to co-operate. Today, Moscow and Beijing are declared strategic adversaries by the US. The Pentagon’s real steps indicate a desire to secure an advantage in the military confrontation,” Shoigu summarised.

We shall remind you that earlier the Minister of Defence of the Russian Federation Sergey Shoigu said that the Armed forces of Ukraine (AFU) will not be able to achieve results in the ongoing counter-offensive. In addition, the minister stressed that from the very beginning of the armed conflict, Ukrainian militants had been using civilian facilities to hide weapons and manpower.
