The back-to-back tacit alliance of the two, (Russia and China), has already formed itself into a new axis of power. They will no doubt cooperate again to reshape the world according to their will.
Or not. Is there ever honour amongst thieves? Whilst it suits both of them, it will endure.
Despite their overall strength being weaker than that of NATO and the West, they dare to fight, estimating and gambling upon the West's fear of causing a nuclear war and nobbling itself from acting decisively. Russia is acting first in Ukraine, and all are observing what the White House, NATO and the West do in response to Putin.

If the West dares to confront Putin head-on, that could trigger a large-scale, highly destructive war. The high-tech deadly weaponry available now leaves behind the destructive capabilities of the past, bad as they were.
One is reminded of Einstein's ominous warning about combat weapons of the Fourth World War - sticks and stones. If the United States and the West demonstrate their cowardliness by retreating, this could only encourage the Chinese Communist Party, Xi Jinping, to stage a similar military adventure in the Taiwan Strait.
Now that the world media has lost its objectivity and impartiality, we cannot just rely on what the mainstream media tells us to believe. We also need to use our own analysis and judgment, to avoid being misled by the false information of a manipulated media.
An abandonment of acknowledgment of the significance of a moral culture, and the importance of it being handed down over generations, has led to a world in moral chaos. We are seeing the fruits of this disdainful ignorance. The tyranny of the East is evil, and yet the democracies of the West are also highly lacking in ethics and justice.
During the recent 2020 U.S. presidential election and the current Russian-Ukrainian war, a cautious and prudent public perceive, with their own eyes and ears, the mainstream media deliberately distort basic facts and spread disinformation to cover up and whitewash the cowardice and sinister motives of superficial, transactional representatives of Western democracies.
The world today is this, dark, evil, cowardliness, and righteousness coexist. We are in uncertain times, with unpredictable prospects.

There are at least three (if not four, if Islam is included) principal power blocs in the world. At present, two of them are at loggerheads - The West and Russia. A third leading power bloc (China) is watching as those other two ruin each other. The world will rue the day if it allows China, run by a merciless CCP, to become the leading power bloc in the globe.
The world will either be reborn from the ashes, or it will be destroyed, if the Russia-Ukraine War is not stopped. At once.
