Claim 2: “The sides will continue strengthening the traditional friendship between the armed forces of the two countries, deepen mutual trust in the military sphere, improve cooperation mechanisms, expand the practice of joint exercises and air and maritime patrols, strengthen coordination and interaction in bilateral and multilateral formats, jointly respond to various challenges and threats, and support global and regional security and stability”
VERIFIED
The TASS evidence explicitly mentions that Moscow and Beijing intend to 'deepen mutual trust in the military sphere' and 'improve military cooperation mechanisms,' which aligns with the specific language of the claim. Further context regarding the 'Treaty on Deepening Military Trust' from the SCO Wikipedia entry provides historical and institutional backing for these types of agreements.
