Is the Russia-China rapprochement a sign of strength or an act of desperation? (Salvatore Babones)

Russia’s on again, off again flirtation with China is on again. The two countries collaborated in the formation of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) in 2001 but until recently little came of it. In the early 2000s Vladimir Putin seemed much more interested in maintaining his seat at the G-8 high table than in leading the Eurasian club for authoritarian regimes.
