Fiona Hill, Malcolm Rifkind and Bhavna Davé discuss the unstable relationship between Russia and China.
What's 'Vladivostok' in Chinese, and why does it matter?
Watch the full debate at iai.tv/video/new-powers-and-f...
Despite the rise of China, the West still imagines itself at the centre of global politics, with emerging nations clamouring to be its allies. But might this be fundamentally mistaken? As Russia and China declared a new world order in early 2022, India, shortly to have the largest population in the world with the fastest growth rate, has remained neutral, trading with both blocs, along with sixteen African countries and many others.
Is it time to recognise that the West is no longer the dominant power in the world? Is India a new leading global power holding the balance, rather than simply a valuable ally? Should the West recognise its weakness and forge new alliances across the world? Or, with the highest standard of living, is the West's decline overexaggerated and its infleunce secure for generations to come?

Does Russia's unsteady alliance with China spell the end of Western hegemony, or will it crumble? Watch the full debate at iai.tv/video/new-powers-and-fading-forces?KZfaq&

'If I was a Russian' Sir Malcolm says. If I want to know what he would think if he was a Russian I will listen to a Russian.

@@USS-SNAKE-ISLAND Malcolm Rifkin is a tool. It's like a westerner telling Russia, "you Russians don't have to be afraid of westerners. Trust me, I'm a westerner" Russia never has to worry about China because Russia and China will never go to war over Siberia. Ukraine is 500 km from Moscow. Putin fears the west. Putin would never fear China because even if China were to influence Russia, they would never instigate the Russians to rise up against Putin. So of course Putin would side China instead of the West. The West is completely blind because they don't see this.

“US hegemony” is guided from places along Mediterranean. You can figure this out by the US not acting in its best interest for decades, seen clearly over the past two. Most of Europe desperately needs to understand this.

Rifkin was bang on here . As sharp as ever he was. I'm not a conservative but I respect clear thinking when I hear it . If the Russians in the far east aren't acutely aware of their vulnerability I'll be surprised.
