But then what, become a part of China?
I don't think Russia could defend themselves from an attack of a lesser nation right now, and I truly wish one of them would take opportunity
- wiseowise 8mo agoThey still have nukes.
- ponector 8mo agoChina doesn't need to attach Russia. Just close the borders for all trade and Russia will implode within a year.
- nradov 8mo agoChina doesn't want Russia to implode. That would only create problems for no real gain. But they'll take advantage of Russia's weakness to get cheap raw materials and perhaps some territorial concessions.
- don_esteban 8mo agoWhy would China do that? They know they are next on the chopping block. They need Russia to guard their back, the last thing they need is a USA-friendly regime in Russia. You are all talking about 'just a bit longer and Russia will implode'. Look at the state of Ukraine, who is going to implode sooner, Russia or Ukraine? Heck, look at the state of Europe and USA! USA is a political nutcase, and Europe has deep divisions and is overflowing with incompetence and impotence. Plus enormous debts, both in USA and in Europe.
