    Putin used to think that Russia was a European country until he realized that the Europeans would never accept Russia and the Russians, and that's why he got closer to China, China too, a large number of people in China complaining Russia taking away China's territories in history, so it's not that there is any friendship between China and Russia or anything like that, It's just that geopolitics and Western repression of these two countries force them to stick together

    Bloomberg, surely you would know that USA is not China’s largest trading partner any more since about 3 years ago? It is ASEAN. In addition, China has more countries as their largest trading partner compared to the USA. The tide has turned.

    For 20 years China and Russia do not have forces on their border. A good example of their friendly relations.

    :glasses-purple-yellow-diamond:two colossus, one soon ready to subdue everyone up to the borders of India, the other taking care of the small European states.
  • Before the Ukraine’s war, the relationship between Russia and China was feeble and no-one expect Iran and North Korea will join the ship. Now we see a  robust and lethal alliances between them. Notably, these countries are adjacent so they can help each other at ease no matter how forceful sanctions might imposed by US and the West. When Ukraine war started, US failed to persuade India, Chine, South Africa, Brazil, ... to join the economical sanctions on Russia. Even the Indian foreign minister clearly stated "this conflict is not the world problem, it's US and the West problem..". Then when the Middle East war rages on, US continues backing Israel with its genocide against the Palestinians; thus becomes alone against the fury of the whole world ... Very sad to see US losing credibility more and more with such absurd foreign policies.

    Two countries unified to fight the evil west.

    And while this is going on, our vibrant dynamic Commander in Chief was taking a nap after the staff changed his diapers

    Trade essential for all countries. Agreements between Russia and China regarding trade is necessary to bypass US sanctions. China needs energy imports, Russia is happy to oblige and US no longer can stop them.
  • @mikeward7290
