On Thursday, October 22, Russian President Vladimir Putin told foreign policy experts there was no need for an alliance between the Russian and Chinese militaries during an international video conference. However, he did state he could “imagine” a use for one in the future.
President Putin also stated that Russia’s cooperation with China has “without any doubt” helped China’s army’s defensive capabilities. Putin added that only time would tell whether an alliance with China is off the table or not.
Turning his attention westward, Putin called for an extension of the New START Treaty. Scheduled to expire in early 2021, it constitutes the lone remaining arms control pact between Russia and the US.
An invasion of the US mainland is unlikely due to America’s geography. However, for one to be successful would require an alliance between Russia and China.
