Commerce between the two countries has already cleared $200 billion for 2023. […] Russian […] goods have become “plentiful” in [China], with [Russian] locations becoming popular [with] Chinese social media influencers.
More significantly, the volume of Russian natural gas transferred to China […] has increased, with negotiations to construct a second pipeline from gas fields that once supplied the EU well underway.
