I don’t. Putin is irrelevant to me. I don’t consider him important.
The fact that THE ACTUAL, PROFESSED, OPENLY COMMUNIST CHINESE are not treated with any suspicion at all, is a far more troublesome issue.
The Chinese are a threat but they “fight” a different way — as you can see: they aren’t going the lengths Russia has in terms of outright military confrontation because they have more to lose economically.
Russia hasn’t made the same economic gains, and therefore has less to lose. Hence the geopolitical gambles they make on this scale and this level of recklessness.
