In the book of Tom Friedman "The World is Flat" there is a mention that countries being part of intricate supply chain relationship and interconnected economies will not go to war. This is known as "Dell Theory of Conflict prevention" Thus Chinas war of words with Taiwan, India vs Pakistan are nothing more than posturing and/or saber rattling."
But Russia risked it all and went to war with Ukraine thus facing many economic sanctions and other difficulties and narrowly escaping defaults with financial markets.
