Consider these :
Russia’s more “stable” approach to the world again (comparative to the 90s Russia).
Its increased involvement in the arming of two very large and one strategically important airforce (China, India and Iran). (between the three they are paying for almost everything worthwhile).
Its defence cooperation agreements with India, (a loose one with) China and Iran (pending, probably penned this month).
Reviving defence industry from a decade of impotence.
Do you think a more stable (and marginally capitalist) Russia allied with India, China and Iran is a possibility within the next two decades ?
If so, do you guys think that singling China as a ” sort of waiting to be beaten” enemy is the right attitude ?
What does that mean for the EU and US strategic interests ?
