EurAsian Times: In Rarest Of Rare Events, US, China, Russia Join Hands For ‘Komodo’ Naval Drills In The Indo-Pacific
Although China and the United States are at loggerheads over various disputes, including Taiwan, their navies recently set aside their differences and participated in the ‘Komodo’ naval drills hosted by Indonesia.
The drills kicked off on June 5 and included navies from the United States, Britain, China, Japan, Russia, and South Korea. South Asian foes, India and Pakistan, were also invited to the drills besides other nations.
On its part, the Indonesian navy said in a statement that the regular Komodo drills were a “non-war” exercise that was aimed to “strengthen relationships between the navies” of 36 countries.
The disaster response and humanitarian operations-focused Komodo drills appeared to be an opportunity to bring together representatives from the two sides. This is especially intriguing given that the two sides have had no contact since August last year.

WNU Editor: My gut tells me that after the Komodo naval exercises are over, it is going to be a very long time before we see the navies from China, Russia, and the US participating in the same military exercise.

The only possible upside of the U.S. participating with these enemy countries is to soak up all the intel it can, while it can, which might be of some use in the future. Other than that, it's baffling. (The threat of) war makes for strange bedfellows.
Yes, but it will not be so long before we will see the navies from China, Russia, and the US participating in the same war.
I am surprised that Russia has still navies. Didn't Ukraine blew them all?
ha ha
They could not reach the Pacific Fleet
