A military alliance between Russia and China to fight the United States is meaningless, even despite the growing tension between the countries, said political strategist Marat Bashirov. In a conversation with Lenta.ru, he added that alliances are not needed for short-term military conflicts, and a full-fledged clash is unlikely.
The American edition 19FortyFive named the greatest, according to journalists, the advantage of the United States in the event of a war with Russia or China. “The United States has a clear advantage over China and Russia through its alliances and partnerships with dozens of countries around the world,” the publication says.
Alliance opportunities
“In fact, nobody really considers a war between nuclear powers. And for such short-term military clashes, allies are not needed, they are for full-fledged conflicts. So what is written by the publication is complete nonsense. As for the economic confrontation, the confrontation of influences, we already have an alliance, a partnership within the Asian community, we also have the EAEU, partnership with the Union of African States, “Bashirov said.
In addition, full-fledged economic alliances in the modern picture of the world, according to the political strategist, are already meaningless, since the attempt at globalization has failed. Cooperation with China is rather problematic due to tax regimes. / This topic is so difficult that it is not possible to come to a final agreement even with Belarus.
“The United States, in turn, is used to dominating. In any economic hybrid union, they appeal to international law when it is beneficial for them, and to their own interests and rights when it is not beneficial. There are certain countries under the protectorate of the United States, but they are not helpers either in the military or in the economic sense, ”Bashirov said.

Russia, meanwhile, has many trade agreements with China, India, Venezuela and Cuba. This is possible due to the large number of state-owned companies that do not exist in the United States.
“They have a different economy. In Russia, China, there are many state-owned companies with regulators such as the president, government, federal authorities. There is no such thing in the United States, there are only private traders, so full-fledged agreements at the state level are impossible, ”the political consultant explained.
