Velina Tchakarova on Russia/China.
[Twitter Velina Tchakarova] Putin got from Xi visit the insurance that China will provide the main lifeline for Moscow to survive the Western sanctions and the key defence-technological cooperation for Moscow to sustain the war of attrition.

Putin bet on China when he decided to make a move on Ukraine and his assessment turned to be correct.

Now, Russia’s victory (even frozen conflict) over Ukraine is China’s best case scenario to confront the US with two fronts in the upcoming systemic conflict between Washington and Beijing.

We’re already living in Cold War 2.0 between the West and the #DragonBear; and the moment when China decides to deliver military aid to Russia, this war will officially turn into a proxy war.

This will also be the moment when Russia officially will lose its global power status, which is why Moscow is trying to refrain from potential China’s military aid at an industrial scale as of now.
