����BEIJING, July 11 (Xinhuanet) -- A Sino-Russian joint military exercise scheduled for August aims to test the reliability of bilateral military communications and will not target any third country, Foreign Ministry spokesman Liu Jianchao said Thursday.

����The exercise will be held according to a Sino-Russian treaty signed in July 1994 on preventing possible dangerous military actions. Such exercises on the squad scale were staged in the past.

����Currently, Liu said, China and Russia are consulting on the August joint military exercise, which will be held in the same wayand on the same scale as the previous events.

����Liu said the reports of some foreign media claiming China and Russia will stage a large-scale army-navy-air force joint military exercise aimed at a third country are inconsistent with the facts.  Enditem
