Russia has natural resources. China has human resources

Money doesn't matter, what matters is goods and resources.
Vietnam will not say no to Russian oil.

You want to go back to stone age when you trade pigs against banana? Money is just a medium. Money is a piece of paper with some numbers printed on it. Nothing more.

That's precisely my point, it doesn't matter if the rubles is worthless in make believe chart or not, it's just a medium.
Pigs and banana are what can be eaten or used, not money.

Trust me, Russia will return to the “good” days of USSR where people stand in long queue before shops to buy banana and bread.

We will see, the USSR was glorious in its great times during the 70-80s.

Oh yes we will see. I myself saw the last days of East Germany. Remember they were the most richest among communist eastern bloc. People stood in line for banana. They stood in line to buy a book. I myself stood in long line waiting to be served in a good restaurant in East Berlin. The foods were expensive however good for pigs (for western standards). I can’t imagine the foods for poorer countries in Russia, Poland.

It is a TOTAL AND UTTER joke that US can totally sanction and somehow cripple China?

If they could have done it then they would have done it YEARS AGO as no top-dog allows another one to rise willingly.

China + Russia combined is enough to take on the West in 2022.

By 2040 just China by itself will be as powerful as WHOLE WEST COMBINED.

No Power has gone down without taking catastrophic measure. If you think China's rise is going to be that easy then you are wrong. There will be a big war before China could take place and there won't be many standing on China's side.

The harmony between contest and collaboration is most obvious in Central Asia, the Russian Far East, and the Arctic. Commitment to these performance centers has tried Russia's and China's capacities to deal with their disparities and interpret the way of talking of association into substantial increases.

The challenge with a Sino-Russian alliance is that none of them wants to play second fiddle. Both believes and want to be the top nation on earth.

NATO otoh is led by a America who is its undisputed No. 1. None of its European members has the capability to challenge US position or has the capability to become world no. 1. Only France and UK might have dream of being a world power again, but thats more of a nostalgia than ground realities.

When the American order brits to leave EU, euro was doomed. EU sanctions on Russian oil and gas will create hyper inflation in Euro zone and hurt Yuan export as well. Yuan eventally will have to devaluate, but Eurozone will be in deep recession for many years to come. Russia will survive since sanctions on oil and gas never works due to strong liquid global markets. Americans knows this, but EU fringe liberals/green parties certainly gullible enough to fall for the US democratic outcries. So far, none of the emerging markets have signed up to Russian Sanctions.

why do you have against Russia as a Vietnamese when Russia helped you gain independence from foreign tyranny then spend money in Vietnam?

Vietnamese as an overall people always feel insecured and rebellious toward whoever helped Vietnam. That included China and Russia. US is next. I can safely foretell this.
