In this paper, we attempt to analyze the China-Russia cooperation within the context of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). For this end, the prospects for and challenges toward the alignment of the two countries’ Eurasia strategies and the impact of such cooperation on the economics, politics, and security of the region and beyond are examined. Exploring the two nations’ actual and potential points of convergence and divergence, we maintain that China-Russia strategic partnership stands at the center of the BRI’s expansion in Eurasia. Economically, the cooperation aims to boost development in the region by spurring infrastructure, connectivity, and innovation. Politically, it seeks to create a more institutionalized and harmonious regional existence via an economy-driven approach to security to address such threats as extremism, separatism, and terrorism. Therefore, in the long run, we argue that the China-Russia cooperation on the BRI is poised to remake the Eurasian geoeconomic and geopolitical landscape with major implications for regional and global politics.

重塑欧亚：“一带一路”与中俄战略伙伴关系

在本文中，我们试图分析“一带一路”倡议（BRI）背景下的中俄合作。为此，研究了两国欧亚战略对接的前景和挑战，以及这种合作对地区及其他地区的经济、政治和安全的影响。探讨两国实际和潜在的交汇点和分歧点，我们认为，中俄战略伙伴关系是“一带一路”在欧亚大陆扩张的核心。在经济上，合作旨在通过刺激基础设施、互联互通和创新来促进该地区的发展。在政治上，它寻求通过经济驱动的安全方法来创建更加制度化和和谐的区域存在，以应对极端主义、分裂主义、和恐怖主义。因此，从长远来看，我们认为中俄“一带一路”合作有望重塑欧亚地缘经济和地缘政治格局，对地区和全球政治产生重大影响。
