Russia isn't falling, that's for sure. They are declining but the sanctions aren't having an effect before few years, possibly decades later while Europe is suffering right now, going downhill really fast.

China isn't even allied with Russia because of Ukraine. China has actually scolded Russia for interfering with another country's internal politics. China is supporting European countries that are trying to make a compromise and peace with Russia and Ukraine and don't try to just fight.

America won't collapse because China needs the demand coming from West, so they can keep up the supply and thus make money. Russia won't collapse either since Europe needs the demand and supply from there. Europe could collapse since we're too dependant on Russia's supply and because US's prices are too high, Europe cannot keep going on in this current crisis.
