Zitat:Chinese army to train in Turkey
Chinese International Radio has reported that a number of commandos from the People’s Liberation Army have recently travelled to Turkey to participate in a week-long training session with NATO-member Turkey’s armed forces. This is the very first time land forces of Turkey and China are participating in such a joint training exercise.
TRDEFENCE has learned that the training sessions involve a crash course in one of Turkey’s top mountain warfare academies and a joint Chinese-Turkish mountain warfare exerise to be held over central Anatolia’s rough terrain. Aim of the training is to share methods and tactics between the armed forces of these two friendly countries, create a common pool of military knowledge, increase joint operations capability, deepen ties between TSK and PLA, as well as promote further cooperation between Turkey and China.
Chinese soldiers are expected to stay in Turkey for over two weeks.
