[@jayblack7166]

After connecting to chinas pipe system, they can sell whatever is left to other bordering countries and also get money for transit, like its happening in EU. This will make gas a bit more costly but option is there.

[@jayblack7166]

They don't need land connection! Russia is professional in building pipelines in sea. From China its easy to pull a pipeline to South Korea and then to Japan. They discussed it about a year ago about possible connection on gas pipes between the countries. Russia already has 1 pipe across black sea and one through baltics and building another 2, one in baltic and one in black sea. Water is not a problem.

Fadzilicious It's not a win for the US. The US is in decline and since you keep voting republican like trump who love trade wars, you will be at a disadvantage. Manufacturing will never return to the US and the Americans need Chinese products because they are cheaper which most Americans can afford. This is now the Asian century. Google One Belt, One Road. The Chinese behemoth is on the move and america has nothing to counter this sphere of influence. America makes enemies around the world and the giants Russia and China are building bridges.

Htin Moe I would agree with you but drilling and pumping millions of years of fossil fuels out of the earth and burning them throughout the earth is not good. I support Russia and I'm so thankful that Putin keeps my war hungry country(usa) in line from time to time. but we need to be putting as much energy into getting off fossil fuels as we spend into burning ourselves alive.

[@michelng5630]

@ Jahh Cobb China has already met its target for greenhouse gas for 2020. It’s moving away from coal and using the cleaner burning Russian gas instead. Concurrently, it is installing hydropower, windmills, solar panels and nuclear plants as fast as it can. In 2018 , China spent $100 billion, more than any other country. China’s plan is to eventually use nuclear energy....possibly from nuclear fusion plants. But that’s 30 years from now.
