Quote: "I think that it's no surprise to anyone that China and Russia continue to look at ways to cooperate [in the military sphere – ed.] and we'll continue to monitor this situation and act appropriately."

Details: This was how Ryder answered questions about the joint manoeuvres of Russian and Chinese warships near the Aleutian Islands, which belong to the US.

Ryder noted that the Russian and Chinese warships were operating in international waters, which is perfectly legitimate. However, he said the US NORAD and NORTHCOM commands were monitoring their presence.
