It hasn't even been a decade since they annexed Crimea so it's pretty funny coming from Russia. China will be safe until Putin dies then I believe Russia will lean towards the West.
Well, according to the Twitter's handler the fella who has written the article linked on his Twitter has been a long time Russia analyst and has a deep connection with the Russian government. Having established his bonafides I thought it would be worth examining the meat and potatoes of the article to understand what's caused him to arrive at an alarming conclusion and what does his opinion means for the future of Sino-Russia alliance if such mindset gains a bigger traction in Russia in the coming years. I figured it's worth discussing about since any negative change in the relationship is going to add another layer of complications for China.
Stop being naive. There's plenty of Russians that don't like China. They're only friendly because Putin hates the West.
There are always two sides, even within China there are no shortage of people who would trash talk Russia. The fact that such voice exists is not a surprise, it's only if they have the government's ear.
Someone else in the thread said:
I don't know if that's true or not, be good if someone familiar with Russian internal politics can shed some light it would be good.
I don't understand where the so called analyst's accusation of China acting like an expansionist power when Taiwan has always been an integral part of China and her claims has not been to claim a land or lands that does not belong to China. As you rightly pointed out, if this is going to be the Russian attitude in years time then China must be acutely aware of this schizophrenic Russian thinking and has made anticipatory plans to mitigate, manage, and deal with the potential threat if worst comes to worst.
I dont know the guy, but both Chinese and Russia leaders and FMs are saying that they will deepen their relations even more.
So I will say he is full of bs
Alright @Temstar I hear what you're saying and be that as it may, it'll be wise for China not to let her guard down with respect to Russia.
It's only one guy's opinion so don't take too much weight into it. Putin will live for at least 15 more years so there's plenty of time to grow for China. I don't see Russia as China's long time friend though.
