Why Russia might be warming to China’s presence in Central Asia

A decade after the Belt and Road Initiative was announced, Russia’s initial resistance to the plan has given way to collaboration with China to integrate with the Eurasian Economic Union. Facing economic sanctions from the Ukraine conflict, Moscow’s weakened dominance over Central Asia has forced it to engage with Beijing. The uneasy alliance to boost trade and transport across Central Asia remains fraught with challenges. As Western forces enter the fray, Central Asia has to navigate through the strained and opportunistic nature of multilateral relations in power politics, especially Sino-Russian relations.

Russia and China complement each other well in many economical aspects and working for a mutually prosperous goal stabilizing central Asia is a worthy goal that benefits all involved. Honestly, it's major loss for the west. Russia didn't want a war with NATO but I expect that the US especially was worried that the EU might shift more towards Russia and China as these countries provide much better economical opportunities for the EU. It always surprises me how easily people have forgotten it was actually NATO that put troops into Ukraine before Russia did. They didn't fire any bullets but where there to ensure "democracy" took place during Ukrainian elections that put Zelinskyy into power. Which was of course a pretty huge red flag to Russia and erased any hope of a peaceful and prosperous feature between Russia and the EU. But hey, now the US can sell the EU gas at 3~5x the price, not to mention hundreds of billions of weapons just a regular day for the country of freedom and democracy 👍

It’s harder for Russia to get a grasp on Southeast Asia than in Central Asia. 1. History from the Cold War, 2. It’s China’s backyard first. 3. Certain countries in ASEAN is are very influenced and integrated by the west (United States and Japan mainly) economically and militarily (Philippines, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand). Actually the west’s goal is to do more business with ASEAN countries to steer away business from China and Russia, relocating its manufacturing and production into countries like Vietnam, Indonesia, Philippines.

[@cliffwoodbury5319]

Provide Central Asia with 3.8 billion dollars. They should build a canal from the Yellow and Yangzhe rivers to the Caspian Sea and refill Lake Balkhash and the Aral Sea while there at it. Over time the other somewhat large lakes can have canals added to them as well as Siberian and Far-East rivers that flow into the Arctic Ocean. It would turn Central Asia into a paradise and would be the catalyst for China to build mega cities in West China, and a northern canal at the western end could mean fresh water travel from Chinese Sea to the Atlantic. Much of it is desert witch is cheaper and easier (probably the cheapest and easiest) as far as digging canals threw soil types.

Mr. Xi, May I request to focus your closest honest neighbors like Myanmar where you could empower his peace, sovereignty,fair trading, mutual respect, cooperation because she has being given your country advantages in terms of economically as well as geopolitically. Thanks and respectfully. On behalf of our people and country.

[@hongqi5734]

China is trying to bring the fighting factions together to peaceful solutions but some among the groups are listening to the US, UK and Japan are objecting to it. The 3 Devils are the cause of the fighting in Myanmar

[@huachen3836]

No, what China can do is to ensure that Myanmar does not fall into violent turmoil and war. Myanmar's future is very bleak and hopeless. Even Africa is developing, but Myanmar does not even have a decent industry. Myanmar cannot even calm down its own country. More than half of your territory is divided. Myanmar is not an elephant. Since Myanmar inherited the territorial legacy of British colonists, it has been indigestion. The fact is that when a person eats something that exceeds the size of his stomach, it is very likely to choke to death. The Burmese people's greed for land exceeds the Burmese people's ability. If China cooperates too much with Myanmar, it will cause the Burmese people to be wary, and Myanmar will introduce Western forces to balance China's influence. This is the way many small countries like to do. Instead of this, China might as well do nothing to Myanmar. China would rather Myanmar remain poor and let the military government continue to rule Myanmar than see the United States appear in China's southwest, and even less want to see the United States establish a military base in Myanmar. In fact, only Myanmar itself can save Myanmar. In fact, more than a thousand years ago, the Burmese also migrated south from China to what is now Myanmar. We are brothers in genes and underlying language, but there are too many Burmese people, and we are not even willing to annex you. If you only have 10 million people, we don't mind annexing you and developing Myanmar like China.

[@outman1923]

China serves as a firebreak for Russia... If China does not participate in the prosperity of Central Asia... a poor Central Asia will inevitably lean towards the United States... Because Central Asia does not speak Chinese, and Chinese is not as globally prevalent as English... Russia does not need to worry about Central Asia becoming Sinicized... China's presence in Central Asia only serves to diminish the motivation of Central Asian countries to lean towards the West, depriving the United States of opportunities... If Ukraine achieved prosperity before leaning towards the West, Ukraine wouldn't lean towards the West at all.
