With the collapse of the Soviet Union, that de facto US-China alliance ended, and a China-Russia rapprochement began. In 1992, the two countries declared that they were pursuing a “constructive partnership”; in 1996, they progressed toward a “strategic partnership”; and in 2001, they signed a treaty of “friendship and cooperation.”
随着苏联的接替，中美之间的事实联盟也结束了，而中俄则重新越走越近。1992年，两国宣布将追求“建设性合作伙伴关系”；1996年升级为“战略合作伙伴关系”；2001年两国签署“友好合作”条约。
