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.

    Western collapse would be a disaster for China, their economic machine relies on global sales.

    Would you settle for the west being neutered and dependent?

    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.
