Thanks for the bump.
Pearls is correct. Russia and China may be moving closer to gether, but Russian may only be using China while it's convenient. The two are also potentially heading for a steel trade spat:
China stiffens opposition to Russian steel
Russia-China trade disputes coming to a boil

Both found via ChiCom Watch.

Isn't that what geopolitics is all about? When a state's interests coincide with another state's they usually work together. Russia and China both have the stated interest of building a multi-polar world which means diluting American power.
