That's interesting! Seems as the "friendship" between Putin and Xi is not as deep as I thought.
- The West has friends based on values. China doesn't have friends. They are opportunists and care about one thing: growth.
  
  The West has friends based on values.
  Come on man that's such a naive bs take. Outright propaganda I would say.
- There is zero friendship. Russia maintains a significant military presence in the far east. Meanwhile the border against NATO is completely undefended, everyone is in Ukraine. The kremlin gremlin knows NATO will never attack - but he's not sure about China.

I guess Putler discovers soon badly neglected Russian Minorities in Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan which he wants to get home into his Reich

Good on China for establishing redundancy against the Russian clowns.
- I get your point, though I am afraid China is by no means a better partner.
  
  That's true however China is slightly more democratic and doesn't wage war on their neighbors.
  Europe should definitely retool for more manufacturing on the continent to become more self sufficient.
