Russia Blocks China in the Arctic: Why Putin Doesn't Trust His Ally

Russians have revealed their main fear of China - they are not allowed inside the country. The relationship between Russia and China is primarily based on trade, without any integration projects. Experts believe there are suspicions and distrust towards the Chinese, who dominate the Russian elite. The conflict between Russia and China may arise due to China's desire to access the Arctic, using Russian infrastructure. It is also known that Putin will visit China, following the Chinese leader's visit to Russia. At the same time, the U.S. president is also planning to meet with the Chinese leader to discuss a new trade agreement.
