On the chess board of this geopolitical re-set we are seeing play out...Putin made some catastrophically bad assumptions. 

I don't see the author of this, but apparently China thinks it's coming out a winner by keeping to the sidelines.

I don't agree with the author's conclusion.  You have the ideological potential partner -- Putin and Russia -- and the commercial partner/source of your wealth -- United States and the Western countries -- and both sides think you've screwed them over.  How does that make you the winner?
