A senior Russian official said the Kremlin wants to balance its military and economic ties with communist China with the US.
On March 27, Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexey Overchuk spoke at the Boao Forum in Hainan Province.
“As to the relationship between Russia, China, and the United States, we should not develop a relationship with one other country at the expense of another and vice versa,” Overchuk said, according to Bloomberg’s translation.
Overchuk said Moscow wanted to implement and enhance a 2023 strategic agreement with Beijing.
That deal formed a de facto alliance between China and Russia through a comprehensive strategic collaboration. According to that accord, Moscow and Beijing have strengthened their economic, diplomatic, and military ties, including global military exercises.
That accord also sought to weaken U.S. global dominance. Russia and China will construct a “multipolar world order” to replace the “rules” of the U.S.-led international order, Putin said one day before its signing.
Chinese official media reported that Overchuk also hoped the strategic alliance would grow as the two powers entwined their destinies.
Overchuk also stated that China’s massive purchases of Russian energy and other items to fill the hole had helped Russia fight Western sanctions over its war on Ukraine.
Chinese Vice Premier Ding Xuexiang, a Politburo Standing Committee member, said he had visited with Overchuk twice this year and will continue expanding relations between their governments.
Overchuk agreed, promising to investigate methods to strengthen relations with China.
Due to outside influences, both nations want to investigate ways to strengthen their connections, Overchuk added. “And naturally we look for ways to cooperate and work together to improve our countries’ living standards.”
Moscow wants to restore commercial and diplomatic relations with the new government in Washington and stop American and partner armament shipments to Ukraine.
Trump has promoted rapprochement with Russia, stating the US will try to completely reintegrate Russia into the global economy and diplomacy.
Russian recalcitrance has hampered Trump’s efforts to end the Ukraine war, with Trump threatening sanctions and tariffs if Russia doesn’t participate with cease-fire talks.
I am strongly considering large-scale Banking Sanctions, Sanctions, and Tariffs on Russia until a Cease Fire and ultimate peace accord are established since Russia is ‘pounding’ Ukraine on the battlefield. Russia and Ukraine, meet immediately before it’s too late. Thank you!” Trump published some capital letters on Truth Social on March 7.
As Washington strives to resolve military budget and nuclear proliferation, the Trump administration may consider a more integrated Russia and China.
Last month, Trump said, “At some point, when things settle down, I’m going to meet with China, and I’m going to meet with Russia, in particular those two, and I’ll say ‘there’s no reason for us to be spending almost a trillion dollars on the military.’
Washington’s response to Moscow-Beijing collaboration is unclear. Since working directly with communist North Korea and the Islamist regime in Iran to harm U.S. interests abroad, the two powers have grown increasingly hostile to the US.
HNewsWire: As Presidents Putin and Xi Often Emphasize, the Russia-China Strategic Cooperation Seems to Be Becoming More Solid
HNewsWire: In several speeches, Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping have emphasized the growing solidity of their nations’ strategic relationship. Even in Russia’s own policy circles, there is a rising criticism to this strategy. At this especially perilous moment in history, how reliable is China as a year-round ally of Russia?
“Common sense,” “similar interests,” and “knowledge garnered through hundreds of years of cooperation” are the foundations of Russian-Chinese strategic ties, according to Glazyev.
As the world’s most significant economic opponent and Russia’s most important counter-balancing force, the ruling class of the United States has begun a global hybrid war to maintain its hegemonic position.
Geopolitically, the United States has long sought to provoke Russia and China into conflict. In order to undermine our efforts to switch to using our country’s own currency, Western spies infiltrated our media and sabotaged any attempts at such a transition. Chinese officials were under pressure from western allies to meet the economic and military goals of the United States.
Russia and China’s growing strategic partnership and coordination to resist common threats emanating from the United States was inevitably motivated by this, despite their divergent national interests.
Our worst anxieties have been verified by events such as the trade and financial sanctions wars raging between the US and China, as well as the confrontation between the US and Russia. With shared interests of survival and resistance, China and Russia have an economic connection that is mutually beneficial. They complement each other’s competitive advantages by working together. As long as there are common interests, there will be no end to them.
People in China remember vividly the Soviet Union’s help in liberating their country from Japanese rule and the following industrialization of China after World War II. A long-standing strategic alliance between our countries is in our mutual best interests; this connection is based on our shared history.
Vladimir Putin’s vision of a Greater Eurasian Relationship and a new international economic order might be based on the strategic partnership between Russia and China, which has been bolstered by the integration of the One Belt, One Road program with the Eurasian Economic Union.
