Couldn't care less what a politician like Putin says in public while on an official state visit to China when he's desperate for support from the only economic lifeline he has left. I've browsed Russian geopolitics subs/social media in the past and they've never viewed China/Chinese people favorably before the war and I'm wondering why there's so many Russian simps in Chinese boards. Again, Russia is only using China as a partner of last resort because they've been shunned by the West due to their war of territorial expansion. China should view this relationship as a quid pro quo just like how Russians view it. If Russia can get back with the West while keeping Ukrainian territory even if it means enmity with China, I'm sure they would do it in a heartbeat.
No. Russia historically held China in contempt because China was a poor shithole. It is no longer a poor shithole. Its wealth and power command respect.

I don't understand the negativity towards China's largest source of oil and food in a war. Russia and Central Asia singlehandedly solve China's food problem in any USA blockade.

It's weird how SDF seems to discuss Russian Manchuria far more than any other lands the Qing lost.

Why don't people complain about Mongolia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Tajikistan? Mongolia has far more land mass than Outer Manchuria. The former Qing lands in Central Asia have far more population.
Land mass doesn't matter. Manchuria was highly strategically important for China. Extremely important actually, just open the map and see what lies literally opposite of it.

But anyway, the Manchuria issue is already settled, so no need to spend so much time on this

The scale of infrastructure they are building. New Cities will be logically created. There will be new Vostok highway to Pacific Coast. That alone will create new cities on the way. Similar Railway Line up to Arctic connecting Siberia in the South. These logistic arteries cannot exist in isolation. Russia built newer cities in much more mountainous before.

Not every place will developed same speed. Some in Arctic faster. some in Pacific Coast and Sakhalin island. This Sea of Japan is included in part of tourism development

So now you are changing your answer from previously citing projects taking several year for building cities in the middle of no where. To it will naturally happen because projects will be built along the way at various speeds.

The Gulf Royals are for Soft Power. Just like you see in Kazan Forum when from every corner of Muslim of world they were trying to find a muslim Intellectual and people who can staff the booths. I have even read that they employed moderate beauty girls in event so not proactive. The Royals really felt at home . even this Bahrain King (A Royal without Soft Power but they still light up Moscow for him).

Except you were never talking about intellectual people but filling new cities with people. Russia will accept qualified workers. What they are not going to is consider importing huge quantities of non-Russians which you seem to be suggesting. For the purpose of filling populated cities which was built at the expense of Russian taxpayers.

They shouldn’t. IMO it is a gross misuse of resources that would be better used for domestic and national security purposes.
Either you arm the globe against your enemy or your enemy will arm them against you. From an American perspective, it's a great investment to create hurdles around China by arming vassals like Japan, Korea, etc. So, if there is any direct confrontation between China and US, then China will first have to deal with all these other states.

People tend to forget that one of the big reason why the US was capable of becoming a global ruling power is because they have no natural threats.
In the 1940's, German U-boats were sinking American ships off its entire east coast as deep as Texas and Florida in the south, in the Gulf of Mexico, partially because there was nobody to stop the Germans in the Atlantic, unlike the situation for China and US in the pacific.

but in international diplomacy, it is irrelevent since there is no love.)
USA - Israel?

Secondly, is Iran out of their mother f'ing minds? They are unsavable if this shit is true. What hope is there when one cannot even differentiate friend from foe while currently under attack?? Never thought I'd see a real world rendition of a Pokemon becoming confused and hitting itself in its confusion.
China voted against Iran in many UN sanctions and resolutions. That may be why they are cautious.
China was a victim of many imperialists, no need to single out Russia. Imperial Japan was the worst in terms of lost lives, and Japan is still egregiously unrepentant to this day. China will not get its territories back from Russia short of a nuclear exchange, in that case, everyone will be a loser. So it's better to let bygones be bygones.
Nearly all the Central Asian countries got their territories back from Russia without any involvement of nukes.

No go reread my previous posts. I reject genocide as a term being warped by Western liberal media and used to suit their distorted narratives.
Some people understand better verbally than by reading. In case that is the situation, here's an American scholar repeating what I said (ethnic cleansing transformed into genocide),

Iran also has net positive perceptions of the US and EU and net negative perception of Russia.

That's not it. US and Europe vote against Iran in the UN much more than China and Russia, yet Iranians view US and EU positively and view China and Russia negatively.

Also looks like Iranians have extremely negative view towards their own government, so good Sino-Iranian relations may end up being a negative rather than a positive.
I think this is a likely contributing factor. Iranians really don't like their government and political system.

First of all, I like how lightly colored the ROC is on the second chart; shows we still got some brothers over there worth not killing.

I see Iranians the same fool as Russians who park their money in Euro to bet against sanctions. White power and what not. Lucky for us, American elites are unredeemably racist. If Russians are not white enough, definitely not Iranians. We just have to be patient and let Iran have its own Ukraine as a wake up call. A wake up call that is so irredeemably brutal that they have no choice but to comepletely purge its treacherous elements. Lets hope they can become the next Russia.

And another way to try to manage the risk of Russian rapprochement with the West is to, besides state-to-state relations, try to build more positive people-to-people relations and make soft power inroads into Russia. As some have stated, many individual Russians still feel closer cultural ties to Europe and some may view Chinese with suspicion. Russians still consume large amounts of Western media and pop culture. You want Russians to be reminded of Napoleon, the Crimean War, WW1, and WW2, not Genghis Khan.



Maybe Covid? They got hit pretty hard early on. Or perhaps closer Sino-Saudi ties? Also looks like Iranians have extremely negative view towards their own government, so good Sino-Iranian relations may end up being a negative rather than a positive. India and Vietnam are pleasant surprises.
The best way to lock down an ally is to make them cut ties with western owned media, especifically the big 5 Jewish controlled ones. Normally this would be too much to ask toward normal allies, but Russia is in an active war. This is prime opportunity. Believe me this will lock it harder than kickass trade deals and cultural exchange.

Contrary to popular belief, the core power of western civilisation is not tech or guns, it is always brainwash. Back in the day it was missionaries. Nowaday is their media. The use of brainwash to fracture society always come first. Without it they frequently lose despite tech advantage.
