What Putin really won't like is if we offer the remaining Eastern European countris membership of NATO. That would really piss him off, but the problem with Putin is that he detests the West so much, there's no telling how he would react.

China and Russia acting together is of grave concern, in my view.
Agree with you on China but at the moment, China does not seem over-enthusiastic with Russia's actions at the moment. Definitely a relationship to be closely observed.

Which Eastern European countries are you referring to? Apart from Ukraine, I think all European countries that border Russia are NATO members.
