Since Russia’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine, Russia and China have grown significantly hostile toward the United States and its allies.
China has bolstered Russia’s defense industry by providing it with nanotechnology, machine tools, and various dual-use components, which have helped create Soviet weapons for its conflict in Ukraine. In 2023, 90 percent of Russia’s microelectronics imports, critical for the production of missiles, tanks, and aircraft, came from China, according to U. S. officials…
… The Chinese aircraft’s presence in the U.S. air defense identification zone was not unexpected. Russia and China conducted a sizable naval flotilla close to Alaska in August that was obscured by U.S. Navy ships. Additionally, NORAD’s head, Air Force Gen. Gregory M. Guillot, reported to the House Armed Services Committee in March that Chinese airs would likely launch operations in the country’s air defense identification zone” as early as this year.”
