Russia will take part in South China Sea counter-terrorism exercises as it becomes increasingly concerned with security and stability in the region.
Russia will conduct naval exercises in the South China Sea in 2016, together with its partners in the Asia Pacific Region, Russian Deputy Defense Minister Anatoly Antonov said at a defense summit in Singapore on Saturday.
Speaking at the Shangri-La Dialogue summit of defense ministers, Antonov said that Russia is increasingly concerned for its security, citing US missile shield deployments, terrorism and “color revolutions.” Russia will also conduct its first-ever exercises together with Brunei in 2016.
“We are concerned by US policies in the region, especially since every day it becomes increasingly focused on a systemic containment of Russia and China,” Antonov said.
