Russia itself does not want to be closer 2 China.
For decades Russia has maintained strong ties to India as a "counterbalance" while China is Allied with Pakistan.
Even going back to "Soviet Era" China was viewed with suspicion even back in the 1960s they fought a War called the Sino-Soviet Conflict.
Even Russian Top Brass said holy crap we aint got enough men or bullets if a Billion Chinaman just rush across our borders at that time.
After the Collapse of Soviet Russia in 1991/1992 there was a hope they would move closer to the West secure economic ties.
But the hatred lives on we dont trust them & they dont trust us the Cold War never really ended.

Speak the TRUTH, and shame the devil. Throw out shallow slogans, and shame yourself.
