Russia aur China ke beech ki dosti duniya mein kaafi famous hai, lekin iss dosti ke peeche ek power imbalance chhupa hua hai. Russia ke upar pichle kuch saalon mein Western sanctions kaafi zyada lag gaye hain, jiski wajah se uske traditional trading partners ne usse doori bana li. Is wajah se Russia ki economy ko ek strong trading partner ki zaroorat thi, aur yahan China ne apna haath badhaya.
2021 mein Russia ke imports mein China ka share 32% tha. Lekin jab se sanctions Russia ke against lagaye gaye hain, 2023 tak yeh number ek zabardast jump lekar 89% tak pahunch gaya. Yeh badlaav sirf numbers tak simit nahi hai; yeh dono deshon ke beech ki strategic partnership ko ek naya roop deta hai.
China ne Russia ki zarurat ka faayda uthate hue apna influence badha liya hai. Jab Moscow ke traditional suppliers peeche hat gaye, China ne Russia ke economy ko support karte hue apni power badhayi hai. Isse yeh dikhata hai ki aaj ki date mein Russia China par kaafi zyada dependent ho gaya hai. Pehle, dono desh mutually beneficial partners the, lekin ab yeh dosti ek power asymmetry ki taraf badh rahi hai.
China ke paas economic aur military power kaafi zyada hai, aur woh Russia ki financial aur strategic needs ka faayda uthate hue apna geopolitically influence badhata ja raha hai. Russia ke pass ab limited options hain, aur yeh power imbalance future mein dono deshon ke relations ko aur bhi complicated bana sakta hai.
Aane wale samay mein dekhna yeh hoga ki yeh asymmetry kitni door tak jaati hai, aur kya Russia iss se nikalne ka koi raasta nikal paata hai ya nahi.

Is blog ke through hum samajh sakte hain ki international relations sirf dosti par nahi, power dynamics par bhi kaafi depend karte hain.
