There is also the question of what Putin and Trump agreed in Alaska. If West Asia's energy production gets destroyed and Russia and usa make a new opec where they hold 70% of world production and are the only ones capable of securing shipping, they can try to cut off China.

In world with 3 super powers (Russia China and usa) the smaller 2 have to ally to have any chance at being the sole winner. It is clear that China is or will be top dog so Russia needs to shift its alliance. Russia is a bourgeois state and we should always expect the worst from them.

I'm pretty sure China would be fine after a short period of rejiggering their energy system. I'm almost sure these plans would be coming too late to work but it could be the capitalists last move with any chance of success.
