According to reports from junta-owned
newspapers, four warships from the Russian Pacific Fleet have arrived in
Myanmar to take part in military drills with the junta's navy.
The tanker Pechenga and the corvettes Gromky,
Rezky, and Tsydenzhapov are among the approaching ships.
As part of the ongoing reciprocal visits
between the two nations, this landing signifies the second bilateral naval
exercise between Russia and Myanmar.
The junta had been holding a live-fire naval drill in the northern Andaman Sea since October 20 when the warships arrived.
Some observers speculate that since the Russian
warships are arriving at the same time as the ongoing naval drill in the
Andaman Sea, they might take part in it as well.
A naval team from the Russian Pacific Fleet
will see some of Yangon's most well-known locations while they are there. As
announced by the junta, they would also participate in bilateral sporting
events and carry out Harbor Phase drills.
Along with officers and other staff, the team
leader of the Russian vessels is Captain 1st Rank Antsiferov Alexey Vitalievich
of the Russian Pacific Fleet.
