The authors argue that Russian‐Chinese rapprochement is a fundamental feature of the current changing system of international relations. The two countries are effectively enabling each other to conduct independent foreign policies often in direct opposition to the West. There is a degree of complimentarity between the two sides with Russia having comparative advantage in the military, intelligence, and diplomatic fields and China being an economic superpower. The region of Central Asia has in reality become the cradle of the two countries' cooperation which is now affecting a wide range of international issues. The Korean peninsula is another important area of coordination between Moscow and Beijing in the Asia‐Pacific. Russia and China have also been working on increasing interoperability of their military forces in the region since mid‐2000s. Technically they have already done much in preparing the ground for a military alliance. However, politically they do not appear to be ready for that yet
