Despite all the grim economic news out of China and the
harsh impact of falling gas prices on Russia, the
success of the China/Russia alliance against the
West grows stronger every day.
As Michael Hudson says in this article, Russia and
China are winning the new financial cold war:

We can see evidence of that in a variety of forms:
Success on the ground by Russia in Syrian civil war.
Success in weaning US allies away from blind support of Washington with its effort to demonize President Putin and sanction Russia.
Success in helping finalize the deal with Iran’s nuclear program, thus opening up trade that augments Eurasian development.
Success with the Asian Infrastructure DeveIopment Bank that also enhances the Eurasian vision implicit in the Silk Road plan.
Success in achieving dedollarization and ending the
domination of the petrodollar.
Chaos in Europe with economic and immigration
crises makes them prone to support efforts to enhance
economic development.
Chaos in US with fracturing of political parties and
economic downturn also make the competition between
the BRICS nations and the West with their Asian Pivot
more favorable to the Silk Road crowd.
Russia and China are also cooperating in space projects
while the West is losing their once substantial lead in that
arena as well.
The recent trip of Henry Kissinger to Moscow is further
evidence of the growing shift away from uni-polar hegemony
by Washington towards the emerging triumph of the BRICS/
Silk Road alliance.
