The reverse is also true. Economic dependence between China and the west make conflict very expensive to both sides. That Russia is kind of out there means they can act (or be acted against) with fewer economic consequences.

This interdependence is kind of interesting. You could argue that China won't invade Taiwan because it will hurt the China economy or you could argue that China can invade Taiwan because any sanctions will hurt others' economies. In the end it's just a big unpredictable poker game.
