Russia agreed to stand beside the PRC===

You know that idea seems as very alien to me. Because I'm born in Sibiria then you may imagine I know mindset of those people. For russians to ally with asians aaginst europian power is unnatural.

In my opinon you overlook another interesting development in geopolitic. I gonna tell you what it is.

The foremost and unseen for 100 years converse between Russia and Europian powers like France, Germany and Italy and others. GB now is under very much of hesitation but they may ally too.
My guess we will see REAL allience here and very soon.
New Antanta. Sort of. Between United Europe (EU) and Russia.

Remember there was always some kind of allience between europian powers and Russia. At differnet times theer was different countries but aomething was there always.
The history of connections between Russia and Europe goes for centuries.
SO when Russia is now capitalistic and Soviet Union is dead and Europe unites then Europe turns to Russia as it was. As it was during rules of russian czars.
German, french, british influence in Russia was always strong. If you knew russian language then you may wonder that almost third of words of modern russian is borrowed words from those 3 languages. It is because those europians lived in Russia and teached russians.
The most famous emperatress of Russia was Ekaterina II born german.

SO you see your mistake? You talk about unimaginable allience with asian country which alien to Russia under all angles of view but overlook real business which goes on.

SO I think this allience will be soon and the combined power of THIS allience will be awesome. Imagine the industial power of EU with russian resources and military capabilities?

What China? WHo knows China then? WHo in Russia wants to ally with China? It is not real beleive me. It is just game nothing more. The real business of Russia is Europe.

To RI: What? Do you think I pulled this treaty out of my a#$ or something? Have you even read it? Look, I didn't write it, your government and the government of the PRC wrote it. I am simply the messenger.
