Red Star Rising: Putin Says Russia-China Military Alliance Can't Be Ruled Out

MOSCOW (AP) — Russian President Vladimir Putin said Thursday there is no need for a Russia-China military alliance now, but noted it could be forged in the future.

Putin’s statement signaled deepening ties between Moscow and Beijing amid growing tensions in their relations with the United States. The Russian leader also made a strong call for extending the last remaining arms control pact between Moscow and Washington.

Asked during a video conference with international foreign policy experts Thursday whether a military union between Moscow and Beijing was possible, Putin replied that “we don’t need it, but, theoretically, it’s quite possible to imagine it.”

Russia and China have hailed their “strategic partnership,” but so far rejected any talk about the possibility of their forming a military alliance.

There won't be a real working alliance like in WWII.


It won't work like that.


Nuclear powers don't need such alliances.


This is a game played between Xi and Putin, each one trying to maximize his own benefit.


Frenemies, not allies.

what good is it doing you to try to put such a rosy spin
on such a frightful situation?

Satanic Nations of Gog Coming together.

Just like Trump Predicted!

China is the larger part of Gog

Joins what? Attacks what?

I do not think Putin can trust China enough or the other way around in that matter. There is a greed for money and power over all. I feel when it comes to those two countries it's keep youre enemy close.

Frightful perhaps, but a joint Red Dawn invasion scenario is extremely unlikely, imo.


Yeah, reality sucks.

more like China fighting on the Pacific Front
and the Russians taking Europe and The Middle East.

Tragic

You don't want to telegraph your moves. You have no idea who's side they will pick. It'll be the one who has the best shot of winning for damn sure!

only because the U.S. might freak-out and start lobbing nukes.

If you don't like it here you can always defect.

Not totally true.

Russia and China are picky about their immigrants.

Looks like communism is winning, tbh.

Lets be real.

America is FUCKED if China and Russia join forces.

They can't win......and perhaps that's the plan.

The only option for USA at that point would be mutually assured destruction.

I hope it doesn't come to that.

This has been coming a long time now.

Just look at BRICS.

Russia and China ARE allies - they just haven't had a NEED for military cooperation - yet.

Yes and they will march on Judah. Big mistake.
