Pelosi's trip is a Godsend to Russia. Notice how Ukraine news has fallen off the radar in the past few days? The Kremlin would love nothing better than increasing tensions between China and the US, causing the Greater West to have to divide its attentions... and purses.
Everything of a military nature that this administration touches turns to shit. Remember Afghanistan? Their handling of the Ukraine war has smacked of nothing but corruption and rank amateur strategy. Now it's their turn to make a hash up of Taiwan. Watch and wait.
Despite their recent proclamations of mutual love and unshakable alliance, Russia and China don't really trust each other any further than they can throw each other. They have a very checkered and often contentious history, as well as sharing a huge and sometimes disputed border. Also remember that China's arch enemy, India, is a traditional Russian ally of long standing. Don't for a moment believe that the Sino-Russian alliance is as solid as they're currently making it out to be. The best scenario for Russia is for the US and China to get mixed up in a more or less minor war which, short of destroying each other, weakens both. Let a US carrier - or any other major warship - be attacked and sunk and no one in Washington will even remember how to pronounce Zelensky or Kiev.
The ancient Chinese curse, "May you live in interesting times," certainly applies here.
