Europe might find a bunch of small allies all over the world though, democracies hanging on thight against autocratic bullies. We, the people of all free countries, just need to stick together as much as possible.
I think it’s a bit reductionist to say “similar mentalities”. They’re both authoritarian states, but that’s pretty much where it ends.
Putin’s Russia is all about reviving the Russian Empire and reliving past glories. China is capitalist through and through. They want to own world trade. As such they do not share goals, and if there is an alliance it will be a utilitarian one and probably short lived after it’s usefulness has ended.
Kind of makes sense. Same mentality in China and Russia. And then we have Trump for the USA with similar mentality but hopefully temporary.
If not, Europe will be on its own against a world of insane so-called leaders.
