In recent years, Sino-Russian cooperation in oil and gas development has attracted much attention. The Siberian Power No. 2 project, symbolizing the "energy trunk line with intertwined interests", is opening a new chapter in the relations between China and Russia. However, what kind of competition and competition is behind this "sweet honey" cooperation? Let's take a look now!
China and Russia, in the world, are a pair of "happy enemies". China and the United States maintain close ties in many aspects, such as energy, military, science and technology, and so on. But as the saying goes: "Everything in the world is for profit." In life, there is no eternal friendship, there are only interests. The second project of the Power of Siberia is a small branch of this relationship.
There has been some friction between China and Russia because of the Siberian Power Project No. 2. The Chinese side wants to direct this pipeline from the border, which can not only shorten the route, but also reduce costs, and at the same time avoid the interference of "third countries". But Russia's desire to send natural gas to Mongolia is well known, which not only makes the project more complex, but also gives them more say on the ground.
Alas, what a mess! The relationship between China and Russia is like a suspense drama, and no one can guess how it will end until the end. And this time the energy dispute has pushed the relationship between the two countries to a new level.
It has to be said that Russia's move is to "strike hard" at the European energy market. Russia's economy has been hit hard after Nord Stream **. Russia urgently needs to find new exports to cope with the difficult situation ahead. Signing an oil and gas strategic partnership with China is also a relief for Russia.
However, the cooperation between the two sides is not without problems. The long-standing problems and complex geopolitical factors in Sino-US relations are important factors affecting the sound development of Sino-US relations. Mongolia is an important node in the relations between China and Russia. Russia is trying to strengthen its relations with Mongolia in order to gain greater geographical influence. China has taken a cautious approach, hoping to reap more economic and political benefits from this collaborative program.
As the saying goes, there are no eternal enemies between countries, only eternal interests. In the rapidly changing international situation, the relationship between China and Russia is like a movie of ups and downs, which is dizzying. The second part of "Power of Siberia" is part of it.
However, it's impossible to limit our eyes to the surface of the game. Behind the scenes, there is a situation that is quietly changing between China and Russia. China and the United States have extensive space for cooperation in economic, cultural, scientific and technological aspects. China and Pakistan continue to open exchanges and understanding, and we firmly believe that this energy pipeline, which contains abundant benefits, will realize its unlimited potential.
All in all, the disagreement between China and Russia on the Siberian Power II plan is a key criterion for testing the relationship between the two countries. This is a small microcosm of the relationship between China and Russia that is both cooperative and competitive in world politics. In the future, against the backdrop of the continuous development of the world political and economic situation, Sino-Russian cooperation will be a topic worthy of attention. As for those of us who are spectators, just wait to see the show!
