Your Russian comrades along with communist China and others (Iran, Venezuela, North Korea) are partners in a joint mission to, as they put it, establish a new international order.
Recall, Bill Clinton's treasonous ChinaGate scandal began in late 1996...
From the Sino-Russian Joint Statement of April 23, 1997:
"The two sides [China and Russia] shall, in the spirit of partnership, strive to promote the multipolarization of the world and the establishment of a new international order."

"Joint war games are a logical outcome of the Sino-Russian Friendship and Cooperation Treaty signed in 2001, and reflect the shared worldview and growing economic ties between the two Eastern Hemisphere giants."
But, you're too willingly blind to see Russia is nothing like China, North Korea or Iran. It's not much different than any European nation. So, there is no ideological affiliation between Russia and those nations.
As far as dealing with China goes, we, especially Democrats, have been in bed with China economically for decades even to the point it costs us American jobs.
