В данной статье критически анализируется распространенное мнение о том, что в свете недавнего обострения отношения между Россией и Западом, возможное создание российско-китайского альянса могло бы выступить в качестве противовеса США и их союзникам. В работе рассматривается вопрос: «Можно ли в действительности рассматривать Китай как союзника России, или расцвет Китая скорее представляет собой угрозу интересам России?» Анализ китайско-российской политики на глобальном уровне дополнен исследованием в области взаимодействия обеих стран на региональном уровне, в особенности в Центральной Азии.

This article examines the widely held presumption that in the light of the recent uptick in tension between Russia and the West, a Russian-Chinese alliance has emerged to challenge the United States and its allies. The essay will inquire whether Beijing can truly be regarded as a Russian ally or whether China’s rise rather represents a threat to vested Russian interests. Analysis of Sino-Russian policy on a global level will be followed by an examination of their interplay on a more regional level, particularly in Central Asia.
