Ok.... how does that go against anything I said? Yeah, in the West know China doesn't like us and would prefer to rule the world. We're well aware of that.
As the Albanian president recently said, instead of Russia getting pissed off the countries keep going EU and NATO, but should ask themselves why they all want to join? It's not like they're being forced to join at the barrel of a gun, or anything. That's what Putin does, not the West.
