It represents many opportunities and challenges, as well as how to confront the power of the United States of America and limit it and try to change the form of and the structure of the international system. The importance of the study lies in the fact that it sheds light on the Russian-Chinese partnership in all fields during specific periods of time starting from the dissolution of the Soviet Union until now, and how the political and economic aspects affected this partnership.
