The Growing China-Russia Relationship
Increasingly, Russia and China are forging a stronger partnership, much to the dismay of other countries especially the U.S. China is the ascending world power, Russia the former superpower, and the U.S. still the preeminent global superpower. This relationship does not come as much of a surprise; Russia and China lack close relations with many highly developed countries and in some ways, this partnership is out of convenience. Both have divergent ambitions and goals though a mutual distrust of the U.S. and the west is more than enough to elicit cooperation. Regardless, in many ways closer collaboration between the two countries despite differences stands to benefit both.
