While Kremlin propaganda feeds Russians fairy tales about “great friendship” and “strategic partnership without limits,” Chinese media calmly discusses exactly how those limits will be redrawn. Not someday in the distant future — but when Russia collapses. And according to Chinese authors, preparations should begin now.

        That seems a bit of a stretch in terms of geopolitical cooperation, and if we are going off nuclear arsenal concentrations and overall military budgets, it would likely end up with the majority of WWIII’s damage coming from the US and China regardless.

        But in the meantime, it is imperative that no Eurasian challenger emerges, capable of dominating Eurasia and thus also of challenging America.

        That would be America’s worst nightmare.

        They look like buffoons right now but I think it’s all strategy to prevent people in Europe from questioning the armament. The European leaders know or we would negotiate differently.
