Are Russia and China together really equal to the USA?

they are decently up there

And Russia wants China as an ally

China doesn't think it is worth it yet.

why wouldn't China want Russia as an ally

Because China's economy can't make up for the sanctions on Russia.

military and political power willing to side with it

anyone would take it

If USA declares war, though, China will immediately remember that Russia is their friend

why would war start

honestly

Perhaps because China thinks it can have better relations with the USA without Russia?

Let's suppose it somehow starts

No matter how

both sides have brain cells, war with eachother would do more harm than good

it'd take actual centuries for any sort of profit to be made

Some wars can't be avoided

Some

I'm sure a US vs China can be

They are too entangled economically imo

That's not the topic though

But yes, China is a threat, Economically and Military wise.

Militarily, it's not as dangerous as Russia

Not a threat that could not be dealt with, but the losses for dealing with it would out weigh any benefit.

China can't invade the US. I mean, any sea invasion would end into a defeat, and would cost a lot to the chinese (non-existant, honestly) navy

@Summī Imperator, 呪い殿 do you think China knows this and is using it to its advantage?

Yes.

They're becoming bold

China has a compitent government, it should be fact, so playing with them isn't a joke

And Putin and Jinping have met for personal dinners a few times this year.

They make pancakes together too.

Lol

Lmfao

And China doesn't care about invading the USA

^

they don't want war just as much as anyone else

They just want to see how far they can go in their area of influence.

I WAS PONGED

which is reasonable as a new and upcoming superpower

Do you think that is part of why China doesn't ally with Russia?
