This podcast episode delves into Russia's "Turn to the East" policy, analyzing its evolving relationships with China and other Asian nations. Featuring insights from Gilbert F. Rozman, Gaye Christoffersen, and James D.J. Brown, we explore the complexities of Sino-Russian cooperation and competition, particularly in Central Asia, and the impact on regional stability and the sovereignty of smaller states like Kazakhstan and Mongolia. We also discuss Russia's strategic approaches toward India, Japan, and the Korean Peninsula, its attempts to counter US influence, and the influence of its war in Ukraine on its broader Asian strategy. Join us for a comprehensive discussion on how Russia and China navigate their "Greater Eurasian Partnership" amid their competing visions for the future of Asian regionalism.
