China and Russia are strengthening their partnership in the Arctic through joint military exercises and strategic bomber patrols. Their recent "Pacific Patrol 2024" exercise in the Russian Far East and 35-day Arctic patrol demonstrate shared interests in protecting regional investments and resources. Russia seeks to assert sovereignty and dominance, while China aims to secure energy imports, alleviate its Malacca Dilemma, and develop Arctic shipping routes through its "Ice Silk Road" initiative. Despite NATO's growing presence, China and Russia collaborate to counterbalance Western influence, with China's cautious approach focusing on law enforcement patrols rather than militarization.
