“…"The volume of energy trade between China and Russia surged to nearly 52.5 million tonnes of oil in 2016 and 38 billion cubic meters of natural gas in 2014, which made Russia the most significant oil supplier for China. Both states are benefited from this enhanced energy cooperation for avoiding solely dependence on one market 129 . Cooperation in energy exploitation implies the grand potential for FDIs acrossborders.…”

This article explores a feasible solution to mitigate the risk caused by unilateral measure to protect state essential interest it considers necessary, which is a noticeable investment policy trend with the United States and European Union adopted new rules against foreign direct investment (FDI) from 2018.The World Bank reported that global FDI shrank because investment protectionism under the name of security interests initiated by the traditional states vowing to the liberal order, such as the United States and European. Russia and China are strategic partners in cur bing the United States' hegemony power and pivotal players in reshaping the international economic order. It is possible to push the international investment law towards a more transparent and predictable direction by upgrading their current 2006 Bila teral Investment Treaty. The critical step is writing into an essential exception clause suggested by the UNCTAD and making it clear in their respective domestic foreign investment law that the national security review is subject to the pre-establishment national treatment principle and the non-conforming measure in the ungraded the 2006 Treaty. The suggest is feasible because of the following reasons. First, though the member States, such as Russia and China, to a treaty with an essential security clause have obligations to exercise their right under exception rules in good faith, the WTO Panel report on Russia-Measures Concerning Traffic case in Transit indicated that balancing a national security interest and the state's obligation under international law is challenging. Second, both Russia and China have developed sophisticated policy design concerning the national security review, which provides a solid normative framework underpinning such bilateral arrangement.

“…Furthermore, there is a potential for Russia to become nervous about Chinese encroachment into its “sphere of privileged interest,” especially as China’s flagship policy, the BRI targets erstwhile Soviet Central Asia ( Samokhvalov 2018 ). In addition, although both ostensibly believe in respect for sovereignty (as well as mutual displeasure with the liberal international order), there is not much else (ideationally) binding the two together and there is a significant history of mistrust (and some conflict) between the two also ( Bekkevold and Lo 2018 ).…”

This article considers the potential for the COVID-19 pandemic to represent an epochal moment in international politics, one which China can use as a window to maximize its international order-building efforts. It is argued that China’s putative international order-building efforts to date have faltered, in part, due to an inability to create meaningful friendships with prominent international powers. However, the COVID-19 pandemic allows China to play a key humanitarian role in heavily afflicted countries and, through this, perhaps an opportunity to forge more meaningful friendships. It is argued that China is trying to attach its concept of friendship to its humanitarian assistance while also stepping into the clear international leadership void that exists at the moment. This is not without faults or missteps, but the lasting impact could be significant for international politics and the global order.
