Since the Russian Federation has approached the People's Republic of China politically and economically, most commentators forecast the collapse of this alliance with the annexation of most of Russia's territory by China.
Thinking according to the ethno-historical key causes that the prediction of these "experts" is actually limited to 1 origin and bears the characteristics of a spiritual revelation alternatively than a neat approach, the improvement of hypotheses which translate into reality. specified predictions are due to the fact that the average reader prefers simple messages, which hit his preferences of the worldview (independently shaped). The problem, however, is that this does not encourage the education of society.
Non-interference
Beijing itself has repeatedly declared that Russian-Chinese relations have been the best in decades, and the alliance itself at each subsequent gathering of the elites of power of both states gradually tightens. In addition to this kind of polite communications, 1 should be aware of the existence of a full scope of akin interests of both parties. I will effort to describe the most crucial ones, which are overlooked in mainstream media, and are essential to realize from where the close-up of powers, which were inactive in the late 1960s. The 20th century competed with each another and formed separate political constellations.
First, it must be admitted that the planet view paradigm that both countries have adopted is highly similar. Above all, both Moscow and Beijing like in global relations the primacy of global law over the realistic accomplishment of the objectives of each entity without taking into account the will of the global community and the decisive function of global institutions. This is due to the fact that both countries adopt a skeptical attitude towards widely understood human rights, which is expressed, among others, by humanitarian interventions. Thus, both Russians and the Chinese do not like the interference of abroad actors in the interior affairs of states with an emphasis on ethnopolitics, political and economical strategy or social patterns. Moreover, both countries avoid interference with another entities of global law and the usage of hard measures is the final solution. The consequence can be seen, as even if we compare the entry of the Russian army into the territory of the bloody civilian war of Ukraine for years, to American intervention over the last 30 years, we realize that Russia is an highly uncommon interference of power.
Together close to the border
China and Russia, in their safety doctrines, give precedence to controlling the situation in their immediate abroad area, alternatively than the United States, which, each time breaking Monroe's doctrine, attempted to brutally transfer power towards the distant foreign. All wars fought by Washington were under the pretext of protecting human rights and freedom. Fortunately, the US's sanctimonious image policy has long ceased to be perceived by the world's public as credible and responding to reality.
Meanwhile, China and Russia focus on the impact in Central Asia. As both world-view countries are powerfully antagonistic to the United States, they effort to win them out of Central Asian countries. This full territory has been for centuries in the Chinese and Russians interest zone. presently both powers are committed to preventing terrorism and Muslim fundamentalism (Pekin sees threats in the form of Uighur migrants, acting on Uighur surviving in China) and the installation of military installations of the North Atlantic alliance, conducting inclusive ethnopolitics (Russia does so in the form of building a task Russia, and China is trying to convince the Tibetans with bold infrastructure investments in Tibet, allowing residents of the region to rise their life rate) and prevent atomic proliferation. In addition, Central Asian countries have considerable economical possible due to even natural materials. An example is Kyrgyzstan, rich in good quality water and gold deposits inactive ready for use.
Korea and predictability
The last point concerns primarily the control of the Korean Peninsula by preventing the removal of the presently ruling Kim household in North Korea while reforming its government by preventing it from hasty decisions towards the US and Japan, as well as investing and helping to make Pjongjangu's economical potential. Taking over by the Americans of North Korea would mean the full dominance of Washington already stretched across the region (being a pin by arrangement Zbigniew Brzeziński). Far east tigers, though surfacely small, are no little a precedence for China than, for example, working with immense India. all contractor for Russia and China is valuable and worth the effort. The same is actual of Korea.
Both powers cooperate in many aspects. Cooperation in energy natural materials, arms sales (including technical-scientific cooperation) and trade are the most clear. The first issue is nothing little than a prerequisite for the fast improvement of Chinese production, infrastructure and industry, and from Russia's point of view, the Chinese partner perfectly replaces the politically dependent Europe, which has late reached a very advanced level. The inpredictability of trade in even natural materials makes the EU an unreliable, increasingly little profitable customer. Additionally, separate agreements with each country are incomparably more complicated than contracts signed with giants like India and China. China's political strategy itself guarantees Russia's stableness compared to the politically unstable EU countries.
Partners at BRICS
No little important, but at the same time emphasizing the importance of global institutions for China and Russia, is cooperation within the BRICS (combining Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa). This task is underestimated in Europe, although if we look at the principles of both its operation (in order for the regulation or undertaking to be implemented, it is essential to agree and agree on all members, and not just the majority of them), as well as the provisions under the cooperation agreements between these countries, to see a sprouting distinct and alternate to the Atlantic-European economical zone. This is due, both to the size of these countries and to their demography, and above all to the fact that they are all developing countries, thus possessing the possible that the EU has long lost in its Byzantine approach to the expansion of bureaucracy and the consistently falling trust and importance of the US dollar. At this point it is worth noting that it would be beneficial for Poland to participate in specified organisations, even as an observer who, according to his own interests, could cooperate with these giants and in others, not necessarily, like Switzerland from the EU.
In conclusion, starting with the world-view paradigm, the designation of major rivals internationally, through economical and technological cooperation, to the doctrine of safety – China and Russia have much in common. There are and will surely be further elements of Moscow's cooperation with Beijing, and their possible and the strength of global influence is peculiarly crucial erstwhile they cooperate. They are a duo of the same creation, which not only perfectly manages without American burdensome protection, but is an alternate to it.
