China and India are already fully exploiting Russian resources buying them at very discounted prices.
China has medium/long term plans that collide heavily with Russia. They even altered their maps claiming Vladivostok and the region is theirs recently.
India is also not interested in putin’s regime ideologically and actually despises the ethnic russians, but oil and gas at discounted prices is too irresistible for now.
Both countries trade heavily with Europe and USA and depend on the west to enjoy economical growth. When Russia will be on it’s last breath they will turn their backs and forget it immediately.
His tiny problem is that his market is tiny compared to EU and US. So India and China will prefer to compromise with “the West” just for economical reasons, no matter any sympathy for the weird Tsar.
No idea since its paywalled.
Perhaps the pipeline that was supposed to redirect gas sales from Europe to China that got 0 funding from China and there are no plans to actually build it.
Or that the payments don’t go through because Chinese banks don’t want to deal with Russia.
Can’t know. Paywalled.
This is one of the things that puzzle me, historicly and culturaly connection and friendship with the west is much more logical. Also the troubles on the longen term will be with China and the countries between them.
Putin “ I really hope that China and India will keep us afloat; you know just because we are so damn pretty!”
tbf to Putin it’s his ONLY market now. Nobody will have any trust in Russia or investing in Russia for over a decade even if he is removed and the war ends tomorrow.
If China get orstracised with invading Taiwan then he might have the last laugh. Somehow the world will condemn it but will do nothing so he won’t
Haha
A lot could go wrong, India & China’s economies can’t weather economic downturns, recessions and other market volatilities as well as the United States and the EU can…
China is the same red cancer cell as the Russia
When you ally with unscrupulous people don’t be surprised that they’ll stab you in the back any time it conveniences them
One issue to consider is that even China is leary of investing in Russia. A country that unilaterally rewrites business ownership cannot be trusted.
Russia literally has nothing except raw materials for others to do actually useful stuff.
China and India have realized that Europe and the U.S. are a much more dependable business partner than Russia. Who would have thought?
Hopefully everything will go wrong for Ruzzia
