    I wonder if Putin realizes that relying on xi is like making friends with your heroin dealer.

    Xi goal is the collapse of Russia and the west.

      Nah, most drug dealers at least care about having you healthy enough to have you to keep making regular payments.

          How is this question a follow-on to what I wrote? Seems a bit of a non-sequitur.

          That said, I’m generally for anything that can neuter global US hegemony without war. We’re the absolute worst influence on the world right now and have been for a century or so. I would definitely prefer a Chinese-arbitered trade hegemony to what we’re doing now, even considering the material luxury we might lose out on as a result.
