I didnt even know they signed something like that.
Even if Russia gets Ukraine, its getting an empty husk.
Its going to take forever for them to establish control.
Yes the pact was hardly reported in MSM...The New Yorker is the only outlet I have seen who covered it at the time in any depth.
The growing alliance between Iran Russia and headed by China is not reported a lot.
There's a lot of denial across the MSM and populace.
Perhaps because USA cannot declare war on China without collapsing many of its largest corporations who are reliant upon the Chinese manufacturing base via the Trading with the Enemy Act?

Can you name a single significant economy globally that can afford to cease trading with China without losing considerable economic advantage.
Just one?
I suggest you cannot.
China has won the trade war.
What follows is arguable.
Nope you could not name a single one.
The pact was signed Before the invasion and subsequent sanctions.
IMO the Chinese now believe they can assert their will and are testing the limits.
With Russia and Iran as solid allies and many other nations including the BRICS as likely to support China it will be an interesting contest.
It cannot be ruled out that the US/West comes under Chinese hegemony.
Ukraine is but an opening gambit in what is likely to be a lengthy process.

please don't fall for the propaganda of the neocons. Russia will never take over Ukraine and then control it. This is about the strategically important regions, which have a Russian cultural influence anyway, and the influence on the government in Kiev not to join NATO.
