China's growing importance in the world order and its growing power in line with its goals and vision has raised questions about how Russia will fit into the Belt Initiative and China's path In particular, how the asymmetric relations between the two countries pave the way for their convergence and strategic partnership in Eurasia. Understand the dynamics of China's global strategy and how Russia relates to the components that seek its interests in the framework of this plan; the starting point is such an assessment. Accordingly, and as a hypothesis, Russia finds its geographical location very attractive for sustainable development as well as the passage of Western sanctions. The connectivity aspect of the Belt and Road Initiative, which seeks to improve East-West transport links, is inherently consistent with Moscow's desire to transfer energy resources as well as to open up Russia's transit potential in Eurasia. But contrary to China's geopolitical view, Russia's view is purely economic. Hence the elements of Russia's participation in the China Initiative, Belt and Road Initiative; As officials in both countries claim; They have not been systematically defined and evaluated empirically. With this in mind, we first provide a brief history of China-Russia trade and transportation links. We then examine the main projects of the Belt and Road Initiative - which involves Russia - and the key agreements related to this project. Finally, with regard to Russia's risks and considerations, the dimensions and developments of this partnership are taken into consideration.

China is an emerging Asian power that is in the proximity of another influential power, Russia. The status of Russia has always been dual in terms of geography and culture, and is considered to be both Asian and European. Russia and China have historically experienced ups and downs in their relationship. following the collapse of the Soviet Union, both countries witnessed the promotion of cooperation in their relations. The importance of examining the relations between these two states is that both are among influential powers in the international system. The chief question here is why Russia’s geopolitical encounter with China will lead to Russia’s inclination toward the West. The hypothesis is that because Russia has major disagreements with China in the Far East and Central Asia, and because Russia is unable to defend its long borders, it will have no choice but to compromise with the west as a less severe threat. In this study, the history of the relations between the two states will be elaborated and after tracing Russia's common historical and behavioral pattern in similar circumstances, Russia's reaction to China’s threat will be evaluated. Theoretical framework used in this study is that of balance of threat. According to this theory it is concluded that Russia ultimately formulates its western identity, not for the purpose of establishing tactical and temporary cooperation with the West but a strategic and lasting alliance with it.
