Abstract: | This paper describes the ambivalence of Russian attitudes toward China at the beginning of the twenty-first century. The paper shows that Russians combine willingness to see China as a friendly neighbour with high level of fear of the giant that could swallow much of the country whole, especially the Asian part. The paper concentrates on the split in Russian views of China among elites. |
