Russian President Vladimir Putin said Thursday there is no need for a Russia-China military alliance now, but noted it could be forged in the future.
Putin's statement signaled deepening ties between Moscow and Beijing amid growing tensions in their relations with the United States. The Russian leader also made a strong call for extending the last remaining arms control pact between Moscow and Washington.
Asked during a video conference with international foreign policy experts Thursday whether a military union between Moscow and Beijing was possible, Putin replied that “we don't need it, but, theoretically, it’s quite possible to imagine it.”
Russia and China have hailed their “strategic partnership,” but so far rejected any talk about the possibility of their forming a military alliance.

It’s a Troll by Pootsie.
and China will steal All your stuff ,LOL
Well I’m shocked!
You would think the Orthodox would have a greater say in this but then I have pope Francis to deal with so....never mind.
He shouldn't pay much, they've been run long and hard for 50 years.
Aimed at Democrats. Putin assumes the hostility toward Russia will continue if they come to power.
Not to be weird or anything but for a while now I been thinking about a possible alliance between Russia and China for some reason, I must be psychic or whatever.
Well, Russia would then have stabbed in the back the only
power that could have helped it remain a sovereign nation.
Acts 2:17
"And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:"
“It’s a Troll by Pootsie.”
Yep. A negotiating ploy. I don’t think Trump or Xi are fooled. He’s trying to play trump by using Xi. China is probably as dangerous to Russia as anybody else.
China already has colonized most of Russia east of the Ural Mountains. They see all of those open spaces and resources, and no one there to defend them.
Those two in the same sentence makes me nervous.
