President Lai Ching-te has exposed the CCP’s expansionism, disguised
under the cloak of Chinese nationalism. Interestingly, Russia
stepped in to rebuke Lai—quite a curious development!
The move suggests that Russia is more eager to "defend" the
CCP’s national disgrace. But why?
The answer lies in Russia's unprecedented decision to allow Chinese
military aircraft to operate from Anadyr Air Base in Siberia's eastmost. Russia seeks to collaborate with China to
counterbalance the United States, primarily to alleviate the pressing situation
on the Ukrainian front.
In other words, Russia aims to link two theaters of conflict. The next
question is: what is the cost of Russia, and what is being prevented?
This brings us back to the early days of the invasion of Ukraine: will
China seize the opportunity to take control of Eastern Siberia, either through
direct military occupation or by establishing a puppet state?
In any case, by allowing China access to its military bases and jointly
patrolling the Arctic seas, while
involving China in restraining the United States. However, Russia faces
long-term costs, while the CCP can afford to bide its time, waiting for its
national strength to grow.
The situation has reverted to the fundamental geopolitical dynamic between
the Heartland and the Rimland.
