This is how stupid, people have become. They read MSM and assume it to be correct without any thought to its content.
This report by Reuters is based on a report by the Financial Times. The Financial Times is basically a British paper, with Japanese and US interests. How is it that a British journalist has details on Russian and Chinese energy deals. It is all propaganda designed to fool people like you into thinking that their is a rift between the Chinese and the Russians.
There is no rift. They are extremely close and know that their trade relationship is pivotal for their mutual benefit.
