    What's the purpose of US/China/Russia influencing others? Destabilization, dependancies, just to gain power for immediate or later use purposes? It's a mighty big question that'd summarize the whole history of geopolitics. Always been happening in different forms I guess.

      What power have China and Russia gained? China is decoupling from the West and Russia is doing so as well.

      The evidence points to the fact that China and Russia don't need to deal with politics in the West.

        Why do they then do deal and interfere if they don't need to? Is it a distraction towards the US?
