If Russia is gonna let foreign corporations grow crops, that’s one thing. If Russia plans to let thousands of Chinese move into Russian Asia, that’s a horse of a very different color. Russia has been fighting against Chinese colonization for centuries.
That is simply false.
Russia, in reality, had the same enemy as China: the Huns, Golden Horde, Tatars, Mongols.
None of these were Chinese.
Russia isn’t keeping up with current events. It’s likely easier to get the Chinese to do the work that Russians may not want to do, but it could be a lot harder to get them out when the job is finished.
