Who are some good living Russia/China historians/academics who could give us some historical context for their current decision-making process?

I'm rounding up potential contributors for an Opinionator-type blog to have a discussion about China's potential moves. I'm looking specifically for academics and historians who are knowledgeable of the history between Russia and China and may have some insight on how that may have bearing on the recent events in Ukraine. Any help is appreciated.

I'm allowing this "ask for experts" thing after consultation with the other mods, but wanted to make note that discussion of events in Ukraine within 20 years should be taking place elsewhere.
