Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The deepening military and economic entanglement between China and Russia highlights geopolitical risks to global supply chains. Officials noted that Beijing is aware of the regulatory and economic risks facing its domestic industrial sector if it increases its commercial and logistical ties with Russia’s wartime defense industry.

Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin coordinate actions in the Indo-Pacific as the Donald Trump administration pivots away from European alliances and Russia escalates hybrid warfare against Ukraine.
