山海之城见证开放奋进的中国 ■解放军报记者 张军胜 张 琳 中俄“海上联合-2026”联合演习期间,俄罗斯军官罗曼少校、伊利亚大尉、巴维尔中尉以观察员身份,登上中国海军开封舰全程观摩演练。数日相处,他们和部分中方舰员逐渐熟络。闲暇时,记者通过翻译和他们聊了起来,话题既有联合演习本身,也有青岛和他们眼中飞速发展的中国。 虽然是第一次踏上中国土地,但巴维尔中尉对中国各种美食早已熟稔于心,筷子用得很熟练。他说:“之前,我就常去中餐馆。这次在青岛特意品尝了当地特色菜肴,味道很棒。” 更让他印象深刻的,是青岛这座城市本身:“青岛电视塔矗立在太平山中央公园山顶,山间公路沿途风光优美。这座城市建设得非常好,生活很便利。”山海相依的自然景致与现代城市风貌相得益彰,让他一下子喜欢上这座海滨城市。谈及未来,巴维尔满怀期待,希望下次再来中国时,能去上海、广州等地走走,更深入地感受中国的发展魅力。 从味蕾的感受,到城市的游览,巴维尔的初次“中国行”满是鲜活气息。 和第一次来华的同伴不同,伊利亚大尉早就和青岛结下缘分。2019年他就随俄方参演舰艇到访这里,此次重返故地,他感慨道:“这座城市更现代化了,科技发展也更快。” 伊利亚说,此次登上中国海军军舰观摩演练,让他感触最深的不仅是装备,更是双方官兵的默契。“虽然语言不同,但我们彼此高度信任,演习按计划顺利推进。这份默契源于专业能力,也根植于两国两军深厚的互信基础。” 游览青岛市区时,有市民主动用俄语和伊利亚打招呼并合影,民众的热情友好让他倍感温暖。在他看来,这些温情画面,正是中俄新时代全面战略协作伙伴关系的生动缩影。这次青岛之行,他特意买了特色茶饮,还给妻儿精心挑选了化妆品和玩具车。他坦言:“如果再来中国,我依旧首选青岛。” 罗曼少校的目光则聚焦在中国海军的现代化建设上。全程观摩开封舰演练科目后,他对中方官兵的专业素养、过硬作风给予高度评价。他表示,中方舰长指挥沉稳、经验丰富,全体舰员纪律严明、业务精湛。同时,中国海军武器装备的现代化水平也令人印象深刻。 细节之处更见温情,舰上的暖心安排让罗曼倍感亲切。“开封舰上各方面保障有力,中方舰员经常来问询我们的需求,非常周到。”中方舰员细致友好的照料、真诚和善的态度,搭起了两军官兵沟通交流的桥梁。第一次来到青岛的罗曼,也真切感受到这座城市高质量发展的水平:经济繁荣、治理有序、宜居宜业。他期待未来能到访北京,近距离感受中国首都的发展脉动与时代风采。 在三位俄罗斯军官眼中,中国式现代化具体而生动——青岛街头热情合影的市民、海鲜市场熙攘的烟火气、舰上丰盛美味的餐食、演习中无需多言就能高效完成的战术协同……既有现代化的硬实力,也有着润物无声的亲和力。 演习已经落幕,开封舰即将解缆起航,参加中俄海上联合巡航。带着对中国的全新认知、对青岛的美好记忆,还有这份跨越国界的情谊,三位俄罗斯军官的“中国故事”写下精彩一章。他们在这座山海之城所见证的,不仅是两国海军的携手破浪,也是日益自信的中国,正以开放奋进的姿态迈向现代化的铿锵步伐。 (解放军报青岛7月12日电)

Summary

Machine summary

During the China-Russia 'Maritime Joint-2026' exercise at Qingdao, three Russian naval officers—Major Roman, Captain Ilya, and Lieutenant Pavel—observed drills aboard the PLAN frigate Kaifeng and were subsequently interviewed by PLA Daily correspondents Zhang Junsheng and Zhang Lin about their impressions of Chinese naval professionalism and urban development. This is standard PLA external-audience political work content; its value is as a record of how PLA Daily frames the China-Russia military relationship for a domestic and partner-nation audience, using named foreign officers to validate the 'Chinese-style modernization' narrative and the bilateral 'comprehensive strategic partnership' framing. The article also documents that the Kaifeng was tasked to transition directly from the joint exercise into a China-Russia maritime joint patrol, which extends the operational record of that patrol mechanism into 2026.
