Not really, friendships and grudges in nations endure a long time, that's why Southern Slavs hate each other and strongest of western and eastern Slavs - Poles and Russians hate each other, as they both claim Belarusians to be their closest brothers and Ukrainian lands being their property along with the other leader's country
I’d say there are national friendships. Look at Germany and France, the Benelux or the Nordic states. Of cause all these states are western and democratic. In the given case of Russia and China, sure that’s temporary cooperation. But no friendship
Chinese admire Russian's achievement in art and their character of fearlessness. Chinese miss the USSR very much because that was once their spiritual guidance. Chinese also hate them for having bullied China over the many centuries past.
I disagree with your last word. There are some issues that two parties fundamentally cannot resolve. But there is no real need to resolve them. China doesn't comment on Russian border chomping, Russia doesn't comment on Chinese separatists. Neither side forces the issue. Neither wants to have a confrontation on the issue and neither needs to have a resolution on the issue. It is a fairly "Western minded" idea that issues must be resolved, and kinks in value differences must be called out and ironed out... even if it is in neither party's interest to do so.
One issue with this method of Western analysis is that the west views power dynamics in terms of winners and losers. It is a short sighted method of viewing power dynamics that benefits administrations with limited terms rather than the continuing state of their nations. China and Russia view power dynamics for what it is, and focuses on just staying in the game. The status quo between the two is palatable to both, so there is no reason to engage each other in No-Win scenarios.
Why do you write as if the west doesn’t act in the same exact way? The only reason this issue is even noticeable is because the west is looking up and down for cracks in the relationship.
As long as the state of their relationship is better than how they would have it if they were going at it against each other by far, they can leave uncomfortable issues unresolved, and they can spin certain ones into shows of "friendship"; declining to comment is a fairly common diplomatic move in these types of scenarios. Sign agreements, participate in each other's events, trade, etc., all while kicking uncomfortable issues down the road for when the relationship eventually sours and it makes sense to do something about it.

This was an excellent video, but you did forget one very big point that complicates things in their relations which is South Asia. Russia is really tight with India and Pakistan is arguably China's strongest ally period. And with India having closer and closer ties with the US and The West, that could really complicate things. Great channel tho, Kraut sent me!
Russia actually has pretty good or at least decent relations with all East Asian countries. Most likely Russia will cooperate with China against USA, but not against other East Asian countries. Russia tends to be rather neutral in Chinese - [Asian country] conflicts and disputes unless it threatens Russian interests or security (mostly when USA gets involved).
I'm from China and I'm very happy that youtube's algorithm brought me to this channel. I have watched many of your videos on China's international relations, including this one of course.

The relationship between 2 countries cannot be simply maps to the relationship between 2 persons. China and Russia both has their own interests based on their own situation. This is a general situation for any countries. For China, it is more focusing on its own way to become a developed country in next 50 years. With a 1.4 billion population, the growth of its economy would quickly make China to be one of the superpowers in this world. However, I don't think China has more interesting other than economics in the traditional territories of Russian's area. E.g. those mid-Asian countries or Mongolia . Chinese foreign policy is clearly non-interventionism. The Belt and Road Initiative is more focused on economics rather than politics. Please be aware China solved all border issue with all the ex-cccp countries back to 1990s. For the question, are China and Russia allies? The answer is NO. But they are friends now. Even though they still have different interests like all the other countries, but there is no serious fundamental problems between these 2 countries. You would not easily expect they become enemies even if one day there is no more pressures from USA and its allies.
It's just that they don't have any treaties to drag each other into war so it gives more public flexibility. Russia's smaller neighbors and even the Anglos overseas have went to war against it in recent centuries too, or even each other before Germany and Japan surrendered in 1945.
Ngl it's refreshing to see actually well put together and informative videos in this format as I find most of these semi-humorous channels about politics or history or whatever either ignorant or too simplistic, but this was actually very good. For example, China's paranoia about territorial integrity and the particularly Russian expansionist geopolitical strategy (in the west) is not something I had thought of as affecting relations between them, even though it seems so obvious now that you have pointed it out! I would not be surprised if this video ended up picked up by some lecturer for an intro to international politics class or something.
China has a claim to part of Russian territory known as Outer Manchuria. Though weakening the US us shared interest of both. They clearly have different vision how achieve that goal.
Chinese Qing dynasty has 12.8 million km^2 territory, but now it had only around 9.6 million km^2 territory. There is a period called hundred year shame in China which Chinese Qing dynasty signed a lot of unequal treaties, and massive territory. During that time, Chinese people live like pigs. Thus, Chinese people hate any territory robbers even that country is their allies. And Chinese people also desired to get back all those lost territory which hurt the relationship with surrounding countries.

its a nitpick, and quite a subjective one, but in the beginning of the video there is a map with the "american" bloc, and it has Sweden included in it. Sweden was officially neutral and was not part of NATO, though there was of course an understanding that if we were attacked it would be from the soviets.
@@NiclasLoof Not really. Some 3rd world unaligned countries had more Soviet influence than American, and in fairness he did not include Yugoslavia in the Eastern block, so he probably shouldn't have included Sweden in the Western one either...
1:22 I would like to add, the Rus were only formally part of The Mongol Empire. They only paid tribute to the Mongol overlords who came and went. They never intermingled with the Mongols. I don't know much about the Chinese part of this empire, though. If anyone wants to correct me, please do so!
@Andrew Popov I don't recall Russian princes being intermingled with the Mongols. As far as I recall, the Russian princes were not related to the Mongols in any other way than being puppets who paid taxes to the Mongols but were not themselves Mongols. Please correct me if I'm wrong! Thanks!

As a Chinese, I would say the part about China is basically unbiased, which is RARE in TH-cam. Communism saved both China and Russia from the war. But there’s something more important than ideology, which is national interests. A little more on why China and Russia’s relationship became bad around 1950. Stalin and his predecessors betrayed the real communism, which hopes all the workers around the world to unite together, regardless of ethnicity or country. But Soviet Union treats other communist countries as colonies instead of equal partners. China won’t be a toy controlled by Russia, China wants to have an independent way to develop which Russia doesn’t allow. So when Russia threatened to pull back all the experts who are helping China build its own industry, including nuclear power industry, China still didn’t bow to Russia.

@@hyxlia_ So hey, dude; the Cyrillic alphabet used in Russian is different from a Romanized Alphabet like that used in English. The "C" in a romanized alphabet like that used in English is actually "S" in the Cyrillic alphabet used in Russian, the "y" a the Romanized alphabet is actually "U" in the Cyrillic alphabet used in Russian, and this character; "ф": is "f" in the Cyrillic alphabet used in Russian. So what "Стуфф" is written as...is "stuff," but that's not actually how you write "stuff" in Russian, and yet the video maker just wrote the English word "stuff" in the Cyrillic alphabet that would be used for Russian as a joke (yes, you can write English words in the Cyrillic alphabet that Russian uses, and no: it does not make them Russian, just as writing Russian words in the romanized alphabet won't make them English, or Spanish).
I would like to point out some errors in your video. 1. Soviet Union's fall is caused directly by the operation of the USA and its allies. The collapse destroyed their economy and every way of life, making them suffering poverty until this day. This, you haven't mentioned in your video, you could talk more about how the USA destroyed SU during the cold war. George F. Kennan, you should talk about him, the classic diplomat during the cold war. 2. China is not taking advantage of Russia in trade. Instead, China is helping Russia while the western counties are putting sanctions on Russia. China didn't ask for a discount, Russia gave China an offer and China took it, that's it. You should talk more about why this happened and when this happens. China increased importing of energy resources from Russia since the trade war during the Trump administration, meaning China doesn't want Shale oil from the USA anymore. 3. Goods made in China at a more affordable price. Why this can be made as a point of taking advantage in Russia? Russians need the goods and so China gives them affordable goods, which is a bilateral trade. Russia has abundant natural resources, China can make affordable and quality goods which can improve Russian's living quality. This is a win-win trade, only America and the EU keep whining about it. 4. China is definitely not taking advantage of Russia whatsoever. China, Russia expects a boost in bilateral trade volume in 2021 www.globaltimes.cn/page/202012/1211319.shtml By the end of 2020, China imports from Russia is 57.181 billion USD while the export is 50.585 billion USD. Both countries create a total trade of 107.765 billion USD during a pandemic year. China is also helping not only Russia but also other countries with vaccines and medical supplies. However, Western media had already begun politicizing vaccines and some of the western countries are hoarding more than enough vaccines leaving many developing countries in despair. Some stupid politicians are still accusing China of covid even the science has already proved that the virus didn't start in China. Both America and the EU have earlier records. It's hilarious that blaming is the first thing to do during a pandemic, instead of actually controlling the pandemic first. 5. China didn't steal military technology from Russia, nor America. Why can't the west simply admit that the Chinese are just as smart as them? Haven't you seen enough face-slapping reality today? 6. 8:47 the picture is just insulting for Chinese people. (but, anyway, its on the western media platform, and that's the political correctness for you guys today) Stating independence in Xinjiang, Tibet and Inner Mongolia is an act of infringing China's Territorial sovereignty. People who live in these three regions are Chinese. Inner Mongolia is a part of Qian Qing(350-394) during the Eastern Jin Dynasty (317-420) Xinjiang becomes part of China (was called Xi'Han) in 206 BC. Tibet became part of China (known as the Yuan dynasty) during 960 - 1368. --------something else to add----- 1. I guess western content makers will never comprehend this unless you are someone in the field of archeology. But, most of the Chinese know these things. 2. China is more of a civilization... The term country is just not enough to define her. 3. The discovery of "Hongshan culture" in 2014, dates back the Chinese history even further, which is 8000- 5000 years ago. So... yeah. ---------------------------------------------- If you take the entire human history as a game of chess, you can see that China is always sitting at the table, watching other civilizations come and go.
You must use every means at your disposal to influence public opinion to oppose war in the Anglo-Saxon nations, and you better believe that they will go to war if they are not prevented. You are dealing with nations that owe everything to wars, and they have dragged the world into two world wars for reasons similar to what is happening now with China. Do you want to make sure that these people are irrational and ready to do stupid things? Look for the time they wanted to use nuclear weapons unnecessarily against China in the Korean War and against Egypt in the Israeli-Egyptian conflict.
You forgot Outer Manchuria. Chinese nationalists can never accept Russia still occupying 'Outer Northeast' which it grabbed in 1858-1860. This issue occasionally resurfaces in the Chinese public nowadays even though CCP can never espouse the nationalist call due to its official recognition of the Russian ownership.
@@Sacrifice228 When the USSR was friends with China, many Chinese learned Russian. It's funny, now Russia has few countries of friends, but the channels of foreigners who have learned Russian more and more on TH-cam. Spaniards, Germans, Dutch, Americans, British, Canadians, Koreans, Japanese, Chinese love Russia, having learned Russian. Many of the foreigners have lived in Russia for decades, have learned the language well and do not want to return home after finding something good in Russia. Do you think they all lived in Siberia? ))
Vietnam betrayed China by invading Cambodia - a Chinese ally and reneging on their recognition of Chinese sovereignty over several islands after South Vietnam was defeated and Vietnam reunified. This is especially when you consider how much material aid and support China provided to Vietnam in their fight against the Americans and how China even gifted the Gulf of Tonkin to Vietnam as a gesture of communist solidarity.
There's no mass migration of Chinese into far east. There are Chinese companies, but no Chinese migrants in how this video tries to portray it. Biggest migrant flow in Russia is one of Russians from other post soviet states - mainly Ukraine, and for a period the Russians in Central Asia stans, and then the central asians from the stans who come as temporary workers. The worry with Chinese is instead the raw materials being exported, chiefly that EVERYTHING will be exported leaving nothing for Russia, and it will be exported for cheap and under shoddy circumstances because local oligarchs want to quick cash to pocket in the deals, ruining the local economies for actual Russians in Russia and the environmental mass damage. This is especially infuriating for Russians because they know that they can develop their own national industries, as they still have some (although some are very bare bones) and have had during the Soviet period, it's just the quicker, easier, and more harmful option is being taken of mass raw materials export for oligarch profit. As for China disliking Russia's territorial disputes or hard power antics, eh, I'd argue Russia taking a large slice of attention and heat off of China by dancing the dangerous game with the West is actually a great relief. The West's focus on Russia since 2013 first with the gay propaganda ban law, Sochi olympics, then Ukraine, and then Syria, and the hoax of "Russiagate" has allowed China and especially Xi to really capitalise on the South China Sea acquisition, and their other soft power operations, mainly in the industries in Australia and Canada, their investments in EU, and their familiarity with American Wall Street and media conglomerates, all of which mainly proceeded under the radar which is why it has been a rude awakening for many just how much influence China now wields. Thanks to all this, China was in a much better position to begin fighting the "cold war" with US in 2018 than they would have been in 2013 if all eyes were on China, instead of Russia. Essentially, Russia showed its use very well in "taking the fall" with the relationship and attention of the West, and not only that. Russia as the big power has also been assigned the narrative of boogeyman and "pariah" role in the West, meaning China has more benefit of the doubt and by that token diplomatic leeway given to it as a much more "neutral" type of competitor, rather than outright villain/nemesis as Russia has been assigned - media and political narratives would be hard pressed to rewire China as the ultimate evil after nearly a decade of portraying Russia as such, and it's not just that Russia was first, of course there's a lot of convenient historical foundations to go on the tirade against Russia, but it's also that China is much more economically relevant in the West. One other point, there may be a big shift in policy between the US and EU in regard to China and Russia. China recently finished the trade agreement with the EU which only awaits to be ratified, signalling closer economic ties between the two blocs, but the EU and chiefly Germany are also now wary of the US led sanctions against Russia, and the geopolitical game US ignited in Europe that time, especially with Ukraine. Nordstream 2 is a good example of pragmatism overcoming the ideological fight led by the US in EU, Russia has always shown itself to be a reliant business partner in raw material exports, and if Germany wants to maintain its powerhouse position and grow the economic union they've built up, they will need to tap into Russia's reserves as they are the most economically sensible option. The warming of relations may also come as the Arctic trade routes becomes more of a reality, the quickest route from the South East Asian market to the EU, and of course Russia is the choke point of this trade route (they've also been the heaviest investors economically and militarily in the arctic for some time). Either way, the warmer relations and revitalized trade with EU members help Russia gain more leverage in its relationship with China, so the coming decades seem to be a win for it. It's going to be increasingly difficult for the US to maintain hegemony over the West and near abroad as the world's arteries move further away from its reach (arctic trade routes - with which even Canada is not fully bending to US pressure of free movement) and that its former linchpin military and economic reliant partners in Europe (NATO/EU) are becoming more outdated/independent respectfully. This doesn't even touch upon the rapidly changing demographics in the US and how that will affect the new demographic contention towards certain foreign policy. If anything I'd bet on US becoming much more focused and active on Latin America.
Not Only Russia, Many Asian nations export raw material to China (Not always have to be natural resources) and China exported cheap goods to our country. This creates a trade loss.
really？If Russia did not sell its oil to China, there is no where to go. USA CONTROL the oil price at a low level , just a little less than the cost to drill well in Russia. Besides, Resource / goods currency makes both Russia&China healthy economy (China has more cheap labor,Russia has massive resource). Remember , USA is sactioning both Russia&China and hoping China/Russia ally breaking so Americans can deal one by one.

Oh do russia is not supporting india
UK and Portugal agree to disagree with you
I’d say there are national friendships. Look at Germany and France, the Benelux or the Nordic states. Of cause all these states are western and democratic. In the given case of Russia and China, sure that’s temporary cooperation. But no friendship
Chinese admire Russian's achievement in art and their character of fearlessness. Chinese miss the USSR very much because that was once their spiritual guidance. Chinese also hate them for having bullied China over the many centuries past.

I disagree with your last word.
There are some issues that two parties fundamentally cannot resolve. But there is no real need to resolve them.
China doesn't comment on Russian border chomping, Russia doesn't comment on Chinese separatists.
Neither side forces the issue. Neither wants to have a confrontation on the issue and neither needs to have a resolution on the issue.
It is a fairly "Western minded" idea that issues must be resolved, and kinks in value differences must be called out and ironed out... even if it is in neither party's interest to do so.
One issue with this method of Western analysis is that the west views power dynamics in terms of winners and losers. It is a short sighted method of viewing power dynamics that benefits administrations with limited terms rather than the continuing state of their nations.
China and Russia view power dynamics for what it is, and focuses on just staying in the game. The status quo between the two is palatable to both, so there is no reason to engage each other in No-Win scenarios.
@@1Invinc This is so true. Survive in the game is what China do for 5000 years.
Why do you write as if the west doesn’t act in the same exact way?
The only reason this issue is even noticeable is because the west is looking up and down for cracks in the relationship.
As long as the state of their relationship is better than how they would have it if they were going at it against each other by far, they can leave uncomfortable issues unresolved, and they can spin certain ones into shows of "friendship"; declining to comment is a fairly common diplomatic move in these types of scenarios. Sign agreements, participate in each other's events, trade, etc., all while kicking uncomfortable issues down the road for when the relationship eventually sours and it makes sense to do something about it.

This was an excellent video, but you did forget one very big point that complicates things in their relations which is South Asia.

Russia actually has pretty good or at least decent relations with all East Asian countries. Most likely Russia will cooperate with China against USA, but not against other East Asian countries.

I'm from China and I'm very happy that youtube's algorithm brought me to this channel. I have watched many of your videos on China's international relations, including this one of course. Really, you are the analyst who can see the essence of the problem the most among all foreign media I've ever seen, and if you have a chance, I really would like to recommend you to some think tank organizations in Europe and America.
I just discovered this channel and you're REALLY underrated,I don't know how TH-cam algorithm actually works but you really deserve more. Will be a regular watcher of you upon this point. Expecting more videos from you.
The relationship between 2 countries cannot be simply maps to the relationship between 2 persons. China and Russia both has their own interests based on their own situation. This is a general situation for any countries. For China, it is more focusing on its own way to become a developed country in next 50 years. With a 1.4 billion population, the growth of its economy would quickly make China to be one of the superpowers in this world. However, I don't think China has more interesting other than economics in the traditional territories of Russian's area. E.g. those mid-Asian countries or Mongolia . Chinese foreign policy is clearly non-interventionism. The Belt and Road Initiative is more focused on economics rather than politics. Please be aware China solved all border issue with all the ex-cccp countries back to 1990s.
For the question, are China and Russia allies? The answer is NO. But they are friends now. Even though they still have different interests like all the other countries, but there is no serious fundamental problems between these 2 countries. You would not easily expect they become enemies even if one day there is no more pressures from USA and its allies.
China and Russia alliance is anti US alliance.
@@Konoha8888 Speak English.
It's just that they don't have any treaties to drag each other into war so it gives more public flexibility. Russia's smaller neighbors and even the Anglos overseas have went to war against it in recent centuries too, or even each other before Germany and Japan surrendered in 1945.
Ngl it's refreshing to see actually well put together and informative videos in this format as I find most of these semi-humorous channels about politics or history or whatever either ignorant or too simplistic, but this was actually very good. For example, China's paranoia about territorial integrity and the particularly Russian expansionist geopolitical strategy (in the west) is not something I had thought of as affecting relations between them, even though it seems so obvious now that you have pointed it out! I would not be surprised if this video ended up picked up by some lecturer for an intro to international politics class or something.
China has a claim to part of Russian territory known as Outer Manchuria. Though weakening the US us shared interest of both. They clearly have different vision how achieve that goal.
@@TheRezrowell,but that narrative is far from mainstream in china,you know is not easy for a contary who have 1.4 billion people
Chinese Qing dynasty has 12.8 million km^2 territory, but now it had only around 9.6 million km^2 territory. There is a period called hundred year shame in China which Chinese Qing dynasty signed a lot of unequal treaties, and massive territory. During that time, Chinese people live like pigs. Thus, Chinese people hate any territory robbers even that country is their allies. And Chinese people also desired to get back all those lost territory which hurt the relationship with surrounding countries.

Sure, except of all the russian princes who were half Mongolian, also Russia learned how to build an empire from the mongols.

As a Chinese, I would say the part about China is basically unbiased, which is RARE in TH-cam. Communism saved both China and Russia from the war. But there’s something more important than ideology, which is national interests. A little more on why China and Russia’s relationship became bad around 1950. Stalin and his predecessors betrayed the real communism, which hopes all the workers around the world to unite together, regardless of ethnicity or country. But Soviet Union treats other communist countries as colonies instead of equal partners. China won’t be a toy controlled by Russia, China wants to have an independent way to develop which Russia doesn’t allow. So when Russia threatened to pull back all the experts who are helping China build its own industry, including nuclear power industry, China still didn’t bow to Russia.
Whether the friendship between China and Russia can last long depends on how long the United States can exist

@@hyxlia_ So hey, dude; the Cyrillic alphabet used in Russian is different from a Romanized Alphabet like that used in English. The "C" in a romanized alphabet like that used in English is actually "S" in the Cyrillic alphabet used in Russian, the "y" a the Romanized alphabet is actually "U" in the Cyrillic alphabet used in Russian, and this character; "ф": is "f" in the Cyrillic alphabet used in Russian.
So what "Стуфф" is written as...is "stuff," but that's not actually how you write "stuff" in Russian, and yet the video maker just wrote the English word "stuff" in the Cyrillic alphabet that would be used for Russian as a joke
(yes, you can write English words in the Cyrillic alphabet that Russian uses, and no: it does not make them Russian, just as writing Russian words in the romanized alphabet won't make them English, or Spanish).
I would like to point out some errors in your video.
1. Soviet Union's fall is caused directly by the operation of the USA and its allies. The collapse destroyed their economy and every way of life, making them suffering poverty until this day. This, you haven't mentioned in your video, you could talk more about how the USA destroyed SU during the cold war. George F. Kennan, you should talk about him, the classic diplomat during the cold war.
2. China is not taking advantage of Russia in trade. Instead, China is helping Russia while the western counties are putting sanctions on Russia. China didn't ask for a discount, Russia gave China an offer and China took it, that's it. You should talk more about why this happened and when this happens. China increased importing of energy resources from Russia since the trade war during the Trump administration, meaning China doesn't want Shale oil from the USA anymore.
3. Goods made in China at a more affordable price. Why this can be made as a point of taking advantage in Russia? Russians need the goods and so China gives them affordable goods, which is a bilateral trade. Russia has abundant natural resources, China can make affordable and quality goods which can improve Russian's living quality. This is a win-win trade, only America and the EU keep whining about it.
4. China is definitely not taking advantage of Russia whatsoever. China, Russia expects a boost in bilateral trade volume in 2021 www.globaltimes.cn/page/202012/1211319.shtml
By the end of 2020, China imports from Russia is 57.181 billion USD while the export is 50.585 billion USD. Both countries create a total trade of 107.765 billion USD during a pandemic year. China is also helping not only Russia but also other countries with vaccines and medical supplies. However, Western media had already begun politicizing vaccines and some of the western countries are hoarding more than enough vaccines leaving many developing countries in despair. Some stupid politicians are still accusing China of covid even the science has already proved that the virus didn't start in China. Both America and the EU have earlier records. It's hilarious that blaming is the first thing to do during a pandemic, instead of actually controlling the pandemic first.
5. China didn't steal military technology from Russia, nor America. Why can't the west simply admit that the Chinese are just as smart as them? Haven't you seen enough face-slapping reality today?
6. 8:47 the picture is just insulting for Chinese people. (but, anyway, its on the western media platform, and that's the political correctness for you guys today) Stating independence in Xinjiang, Tibet and Inner Mongolia is an act of infringing China's Territorial sovereignty. People who live in these three regions are Chinese. Inner Mongolia is a part of Qian Qing(350-394) during the Eastern Jin Dynasty (317-420) Xinjiang becomes part of China (was called Xi'Han) in 206 BC. Tibet became part of China (known as the Yuan dynasty) during 960 - 1368.
--------something else to add-----
1. I guess western content makers will never comprehend this unless you are someone in the field of archeology. But, most of the Chinese know these things.
2. China is more of a civilization... The term country is just not enough to define her.
3. The discovery of "Hongshan culture" in 2014, dates back the Chinese history even further, which is 8000- 5000 years ago. So... yeah.
----------------------------------------------
If you take the entire human history as a game of chess, you can see that China is always sitting at the table, watching other civilizations come and go.
You must use every means at your disposal to influence public opinion to oppose war in the Anglo-Saxon nations, and you better believe that they will go to war if they are not prevented. You are dealing with nations that owe everything to wars, and they have dragged the world into two world wars for reasons similar to what is happening now with China. Do you want to make sure that these people are irrational and ready to do stupid things? Look for the time they wanted to use nuclear weapons unnecessarily against China in the Korean War and against Egypt in the Israeli-Egyptian conflict.
You forgot Outer Manchuria. Chinese nationalists can never accept Russia still occupying 'Outer Northeast' which it grabbed in 1858-1860. This issue occasionally resurfaces in the Chinese public nowadays even though CCP can never espouse the nationalist call due to its official recognition of the Russian ownership.

There's no mass migration of Chinese into far east. There are Chinese companies, but no Chinese migrants in how this video tries to portray it. Biggest migrant flow in Russia is one of Russians from other post soviet states - mainly Ukraine, and for a period the Russians in Central Asia stans, and then the central asians from the stans who come as temporary workers.
The worry with Chinese is instead the raw materials being exported, chiefly that EVERYTHING will be exported leaving nothing for Russia, and it will be exported for cheap and under shoddy circumstances because local oligarchs want to quick cash to pocket in the deals, ruining the local economies for actual Russians in Russia and the environmental mass damage. This is especially infuriating for Russians because they know that they can develop their own national industries, as they still have some (although some are very bare bones) and have had during the Soviet period, it's just the quicker, easier, and more harmful option is being taken of mass raw materials export for oligarch profit.
As for China disliking Russia's territorial disputes or hard power antics, eh, I'd argue Russia taking a large slice of attention and heat off of China by dancing the dangerous game with the West is actually a great relief. The West's focus on Russia since 2013 first with the gay propaganda ban law, Sochi olympics, then Ukraine, and then Syria, and the hoax of "Russiagate" has allowed China and especially Xi to really capitalise on the South China Sea acquisition, and their other soft power operations, mainly in the industries in Australia and Canada, their investments in EU, and their familiarity with American Wall Street and media conglomerates, all of which mainly proceeded under the radar which is why it has been a rude awakening for many just how much influence China now wields. Thanks to all this, China was in a much better position to begin fighting the "cold war" with US in 2018 than they would have been in 2013 if all eyes were on China, instead of Russia. Essentially, Russia showed its use very well in "taking the fall" with the relationship and attention of the West, and not only that.
Russia as the big power has also been assigned the narrative of boogeyman and "pariah" role in the West, meaning China has more benefit of the doubt and by that token diplomatic leeway given to it as a much more "neutral" type of competitor, rather than outright villain/nemesis as Russia has been assigned - media and political narratives would be hard pressed to rewire China as the ultimate evil after nearly a decade of portraying Russia as such, and it's not just that Russia was first, of course there's a lot of convenient historical foundations to go on the tirade against Russia, but it's also that China is much more economically relevant in the West.
One other point, there may be a big shift in policy between the US and EU in regard to China and Russia. China recently finished the trade agreement with the EU which only awaits to be ratified, signalling closer economic ties between the two blocs, but the EU and chiefly Germany are also now wary of the US led sanctions against Russia, and the geopolitical game US ignited in Europe that time, especially with Ukraine. Nordstream 2 is a good example of pragmatism overcoming the ideological fight led by the US in EU, Russia has always shown itself to be a reliant business partner in raw material exports, and if Germany wants to maintain its powerhouse position and grow the economic union they've built up, they will need to tap into Russia's reserves as they are the most economically sensible option. The warming of relations may also come as the Arctic trade routes becomes more of a reality, the quickest route from the South East Asian market to the EU, and of course Russia is the choke point of this trade route (they've also been the heaviest investors economically and militarily in the arctic for some time).
Either way, the warmer relations and revitalized trade with EU members help Russia gain more leverage in its relationship with China, so the coming decades seem to be a win for it.
It's going to be increasingly difficult for the US to maintain hegemony over the West and near abroad as the world's arteries move further away from its reach (arctic trade routes - with which even Canada is not fully bending to US pressure of free movement) and that its former linchpin military and economic reliant partners in Europe (NATO/EU) are becoming more outdated/independent respectfully. This doesn't even touch upon the rapidly changing demographics in the US and how that will affect the new demographic contention towards certain foreign policy. If anything I'd bet on US becoming much more focused and active on Latin America.

Love your countries animations
So you think Japan and EU are the Allies of US is because of the friendship?
Not Only Russia, Many Asian nations export raw material to China (Not always have to be natural resources) and China exported cheap goods to our country. This creates a trade loss.
Because your raw materials are cheaper and the Chinese goods are more valuable.

Besides, Resource / goods currency makes both Russia&China healthy economy (China has more cheap labor,Russia has massive resource). Remember , USA is sactioning both Russia&China and hoping China/Russia ally breaking so Americans can deal one by one.
China might be economically powerful, but their military is an absolute joke, unlike Russian one.
You are right.
@赤霞 Don't let the Americans see this comment lol
Amazing video. Hopefully this channel will grow

作为一个中国人，我想说up主对两国关系还是做过功课的。
但仍旧一些瑕疵的地方，比如中国境内除了台湾地区外，没有无法控制的地方，而您却列上西藏和新疆，实际上在国内这两个地方完全没问题，没有不稳定因素。
所以有空up主来中国看看吧，别google或者看bbc cnn 去做这种视频，会显得很无聊。
确实只要解放军有驻军的地方，就不存在无法控制这一说。

Cute
With friends like this, who needs enemies?
For the sake of humanity
I wish China & Russia a "healthy" relationship/friendship
For the sake of humanity I hope the opposite, the sooner Russia and the West realise they have more in common the better
@@AeneasGemini and yet the one causing trouble around the globe is the US
@@AeneasGemini hahahahah you think the west have anything in common with Russia ? How many years has the west vilified Russia ? The west are snakes in the grass
As long as USA are still standing,China-Russia would be good friends

Aww... Russian and Chinese cooperation is so cute!

Idk how well the comment will age, especially for the Americans once the Russians and Chinese stop worrying about dealing with each other.

People: hey, so are you two friends or not?
Russia and China: yesn't.
My Chinese friend says China Love Russia
Of course we are
that is like what the soviet union and america did when they fought nazi germany, they were united because they had the same opponent
the enemy of my enemy is my friend
Being allies does not equal being friends so you can firmly say that they are ALLIES
So there r no friendship between any countries in the world
Like ur content mate
5:42 "STUFF" in Cyrillic - excellent xD

Brilliant work man. I hope you continue making videos like this.
As an Australian, that country ball being economically manipulated by China hurts big time. Most of us have realised the threat posed by China’s soft power and we’ve started to diversify our economy .
但是實際上，美國俄羅斯中國歐洲會維持這種危險而微妙的國際關係。以免民眾在下降的經濟週期和逐漸匱乏的資源環境下發現政客們才是侵佔我們利益最多的人。

We are not enemies because we face the same threat. If we are enemies in the future, it will definitely not be a confrontation between countries, but a war between civilizations.
