One of these days, one might want to see Russia and China conduct coordinated operations to break an arm and a leg of these Anglo vassals, say UK in Black Sea and Aussie in South China Sea, if they continue to conduct these provocative activities in the territorial waters of the respective countries. That should send a strong signal to the world, or rather vassals of the world.
Right now, it's been pretty much a one-man show in SCS, with the vassals occasionally taking very low-profile, less provocative borderline activities. Aussie has been doing a lot of trash talk lately, but hasn't translated them into real actions. I doubt UK or other vassals would do the same thing in Black Sea against Russia again any time soon, now that Russia has acted vey strongly and give them stern warning.
All these western or pseudo-western vassals will scatter away and lie low if their big boss is greatly weakened.
