Chinese warships arrive in France to conduct joint military exercise

Two Chinese naval vessels on Friday arrived in the southern French port city of Toulon to conduct a joint military exercise with the French Navy in the Mediterranean sea.

During their five-day visit, more than 500 Chinese officers and sailors aboard the guided missile destroyer Guangzhou and the supply ship Weishanhu will take part in the joint military exercise dubbed "China-France Friendship 2007."

France is the fourth leg of the 87-day voyage of the two Chinese naval vessels that has already taken them to St. Petersburg, Russia, Portsmouth, Britain, and Cadiz, Spain.
