PUTIN-XI AXIS: Russia’s Stealth "Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky" Submarine Dock in Qingdao!

A detachment of Russia’s Pacific Fleet, including the diesel-electric submarine Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, arrived at the Chinese port of Qingdao on Tuesday for a planned business call. The visit, which follows recent naval engagements in Indonesia, includes the corvette Gromky and the tugboat Andrei Stepanov. According to the Russian Defence Ministry, the stopover is intended to facilitate "protocol events" and professional exchanges between Russian and Chinese naval personnel, alongside cultural tours and sporting competitions. The long-range voyage, which originated from Vladivostok in early March, serves as a significant demonstration of the deepening maritime cooperation between Moscow and Beijing amid heightened regional tensions. #russiannavy #chinanavy #qingdao #pacificfleet #submarine #russiachina #maritimesecurity #asiapacific #geopolitics #militarynews In this Times Now World News report, we break down the this topic: Stay connected with Times Now World for real-time global news and analysis: Read full coverage: https://www.timesnownews.com/world Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/timesnow.world Follow us on X: https://x.com/TimesNow_World #TimesNowWorld #WorldNews #BreakingNews
