so does Russia have a long memory. remember friends, Hitler turned on Russia and it didn’t turn out well for germany. china will gain ground at first. after that...china will be decimated by Russia.
Why? How?
It's roughly 1.4 billion people (China) vs 0.14 billion people (Russia). China has industrial capabilities these days (thanks to Western idiocy) that are waaaay beyond what Russia has.
Russia has very embarrassingly failed to dispatch with Ukraine in a timely manner - a country of less than ~1/30 the population of China. China has a large surplus of military aged males with few chances of female partnership.
If they both turn to nukes there will be no winner.
So, how?
