Don’t see it there at a macro level.
As a power dynamic. Them all being strong is far better.
Russian economy is relatively small and insignificant compared to Chinese business in the EU and North America.
Chinese influence is greater with an increase in allies. Same applies to any country.
When Russia is strong they meddle in all areas of the world in direct conflict with western values and morals. They stir up stuff in Africa and central and South America. In the Arctic and the Middle East.
When their resources are going to their war, it means significant resources are deployed there.
They suffer massive casualties of fighting age males. They should the world how incompetent their military and much of their equipment is. It shows where oligarchs are stealing from the system.
Pound for pound a weakened Russia is good for the world. Maybe…just maybe they will learn a lesson once Putin is gone.
