China’s Territorial Claims

Translation of Adam’s post on the Russian blog.  

Several weeks ago, almost simultaneously, the Kazakh blogosphere produced two posts in popular blogs about much rumored latent territorial claims of China to the neighboring countries, including Kazakhstan. This topic is close to many people in our country, who are familiar by hearsay with some Chinese maps, where Almaty is marked as part of PRC.

Epolet posts fragment of history atlas, showing the borders of Tsin Empire in late 18 century, and a map from the Military Museum in Beijing. Meanwhile, megakhuimyak in his blog presents a map from an Americal source — “borders of the territory that China wanted to get from the Soviet Union”.

    These rumor may or may not be true, but one thing is for sure: these Chinese cockroaches have a lot of hidden agendas regarding Central Asia. We must boycott Shanghai Cooperation Organization and kick their companies and business out of Central Asia. I am sure, both Russia and USA will support us and countries like Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan will applause.

    I am from Taiwan, but no, I will not applaud any crazy action. Are you realy a Kazak or Uzbek? Or you are just trying to spread hatred over the net? Or you are so doped that you are totally bombed out?

    The only place I heard people called others cockroaches is in the movie “Hotel Rwanda”. Now U. from the V. counts for the second in my list. Btw, US and Russia don’t seem to ride on the same horse.
