I am surprised China went the "China Sea route". They were already well advanced into Siberia with people presence and economic ties.
Russia has a problem there. I've heard Siberia has more significant economic ties with China than it does with Russia west of the Urals. Don't know if that is true, though.
In other "Russia" news, Belarus clapped irons on a bunch of Russian mercenaries so that they don't cause trouble in the coming election.
