,August 31, 2019



China and Pakistan besides some regional countries will participate in the "Centre 2019" Russia Military Exercise scheduled to be held from Sept. 16 to 21, according to a Defence Ministry spokesperson.

Senior Colonel Ren Guoqiang said at a regular press conference that China will send around 1,600 soldiers from the PLA West Theatre Command, around 300 pieces of military equipment and almost 30 fixed-wing aircraft and helicopters to join the “Centre 2019” exercise in Orenburg, the largest one Russia is holding this year.

Focusing on “multinational combined forces conducting group count-terrorism missions to protect military security in Central Asia,” the exercise will also be joined with six other nations including Pakistan, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan.

Participating in the upcoming Russian exercise is designed to strengthen Sino-Russian comprehensive strategic partnership of coordination, deepen pragmatic and friendly cooperation in the military sphere.

The exercise will enhance the capability of participating multinational combined forces to deal with security threats and safeguard regional peace and stability, Ren said.

It is not targeted to any third party or related to any specific regional situation, he added.

India is part of the exercise too. Should Pakistan really be conducted exercises with our hostile neighbor?

Strange to do exercise when there is a possibility of war just round the corner...

The GoP is most welcome to protest GoI participation and ask the Russian authorities to exclude India on behalf of Pakistani concerns. No guarantee it will be heard though, neither of us gets to dictate what the other can and cannot do.

Going by the official statement posted above, India doesn't appear to have a very prominent position given the Russians felt India should only be mentioned further down the list, and between the Kyrgyz republic and the Republic of Kazakhstan.

Perhaps the Indians will pull out?

Russia felt the need to list China and Pakistan together and at the front of the list on consecutive occasions. It's a clear diplomatic snub.

The only idiot here is you, but then you are an Indian.

If looking at the list of names and that China and Pakistan were named first soothes you and somehow consider it to be a diplomatic win, good for you mate, personally I read up on memes and jokes online to decompress after a long day.

no pakistaniz requesting india to be not included would mean we have same mentality as indians. primitive and pathetic. best course of action is decide ourselves we go or dont go and let indians decide they go or dont go.

asking others not to invite india would be very very wrong on multiple levels. just like india does everything and is humilated behind back.

Only looking forward to India pulling out, if they have any shame that is.

Not very likely, I know.

The GoP has on occasions, where it could, asked for non participation or inclusion of Indian delegates, the same can be said for GoI attempts against Pakistan.

Ofcourse as per narrative one side always gets humiliated and one is always victorious, the who, depends on the narrator though.

Why would India opt out, for your fragile sensibilities??? Shame ? How do you figure that out?

Even the GoP hasn't said anything in this regard and their diplomatic acumen is far better than yours.

I hate the word diplomatic snub especially after Indians added it to their vocabulary.
