There is a New Cold War in Asia

Quote

There is a new Cold War in Asia with an increasingly assertive China on one side and a loose alliance of the US, India and Japan on the other. In May this year, the US announced that it would lift its arms embargo against Vietnam, hardly a democratic nation that respects human rights, but a very useful ally against China.

‘Island seizing’ a part of China-Russia naval drill in South China Sea

Quote

The drills come at a time when the US, as part of its 'Pivot to Asia' reorientation of foreign policy, is increasing the presence ensuring of its Seventh Fleet in the South China Sea region. Washington has claimed the increased deployment is aimed at ensuring free access to Sea Lanes of Communication (SLOCs), or major international shipping routes.

 

 

 


The drills are also significant considering they are being jointly carried out by two countries that are locked in heated struggles for influence with the US. While China has felt rising discomfort over increased US attention and presence in a region it considers it backyard, Russia has been flexing its muscles in Eastern Europe.

no1 is anyones permantely ally and no1 is anyones permanetly foe in this mad world.

The cloest thing to true strong allied geo-political relationships are the 5 eyes (usa,canada, uk,austraila, new zealand).

Look at how russia and usa who are alleged geo political enemies of each other but often cooperate with each other against common foes like the islamists in syria and friendly cooperation in space exploration.
