Russian president Vladimir Putin and Chinese leader Xi Jinping have a positive relationship for now. But as Russia goes to war with Ukraine, what would happen if the Chinese invaded Russia?

The Chinese army has over 2 million troops, double Russia’s military force. But Russia has more nukes. And neither of these turbulent countries have seen war in years. What would happen if China invaded Russia?
