The PRC is holding up its end of the deal between them the NK's and Russia (Putin) by threatening world trade/inserting bases at world trade choke points. I suppose this is why our defence spending is majoring on the navy and air force at the cost of reducing the army a fair bit. There are plans to move defence emphasis to the Pacific region to counter the PRC but what will they do when the threat moves to the Russians? Seems like we and NATO are reacting rather than making the other folk react to us now which is of course the weaker option.
I would like to be a fly on the wall when that conversation happens.
