Kremlin: China has the sovereign right to conduct large military exercises around Taiwan

The Kremlin said today that China has the sovereign right to conduct major military exercises around Taiwan and accused the United States of artificially fueling tensions in the region.

China fired multiple missiles around Taiwan on Thursday as it launched unprecedented military drills a day after US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi visited the self-ruled island that Beijing considers its sovereign territory.

He also called for restraint from both sides after Azerbaijan said its forces had repelled an Armenian attack near the disputed enclave of Nagorno-Karabakh.

Last year the two sides agreed to work on a peace plan after Russia brokered a ceasefire, but they periodically accuse each other of firing cross-border missiles.

Regarding Gazprom, he noted that he would like to take back the Nord Stream 1 turbine that has undergone maintenance in Canada, but that he requires documents confirming that the turbine is not subject to sanctions.

Finally, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov stressed that the deal brokered by Turkey to unblock Ukraine’s grain exports from the Black Sea was not a “one-time mechanism” and that he hoped it would continue to work effectively.

The agreement, which allows Ukrainian grain to be sent to world markets through Turkey, must be renewed every 120 days by agreement of the parties.
