    Exactly, it’s not so much that Russia is loyal to China but rather that the west has precious little to offer. I do think that this sort of political variability is more prevalent in the west however. Russian and Chinese politics are much more stable in nature, and hence there tends to be a lot less surprise upsets of the sort we see in the west.

      I would argue that Russia does have a sense of loyalty to China, but it’s not as rock solid as it should be IMO.
