Growing Military Cooperation Among China, North Korea, and Russia Raises Concerns in the Pacific
U.S. officials and military commanders have expressed increasing alarm over the burgeoning military cooperation between China, North Korea, and Russia, particularly in the context of the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. Reports indicate that North Korea is supplying Russia with substantial military aid, including ballistic missiles and artillery shells, which poses significant risks to security in the Pacific region. U.S. military leaders have warned that this alliance could lead to a new axis of power, complicating the great power struggle and potentially escalating conflicts in the Indo-Pacific area. The implications of this partnership raise profound concerns for regional stability and international security.
