Russia Invades ukraine

While Russia is focussed on the West, and China is focussed on the South China Sea, it clearly makes sense for the two of them to stand "back to back".

Russia and China have recently announced a historic alliance that looks like it'll have some interesting geopolitical implications. Here's the full text - it's an interesting read: http://en.kremlin.ru/supplement/5770

I'm foolish so I'll bite.

Outside the Israel, the middle east countries are mainly prime producers eg oil. Russia has gas and oil too. There the parallels end.
