One possible result of that policy (other factors also present) could be to re-create the Russian-Chinese alliance
That would be a disaster. But I do not think that Russia and China will be loving partners any time soon. China is like the red-headed step child that's coming of age and Russia is the alcoholic father that's powerless to stop his step daughter's promiscuity with the neighborhood jock (who could that be.....?) that she hopes to use to get out of their podunk hamlet. The alcoholic father hates the jock because he has an opportunity for that professional career that the father lost when he was drafted for Vietnam.
