Chinese nationalists are calling for Russia to return land they claim was stolen by the Kremlin in the 19th century.
A video on Chinese social media has called on Beijing to take advantage of Moscow's weakened position to seize large parts of Siberia and Russia's Far East.
The clip has gone viral in China and has racked up millions of hits among viewers on TikTok.

The Treaty of Aigun in 1858 forced China to cede much of Manchuria to the Russian Tsar Alexander II.
The territory, comprising some 600,000 square kilometres, is part of Russia's Far East and includes Vladivostok - the base of Putin's Pacific Fleet.
In the video the Chinese narrator calls on China's "thunderous" army to "rush north" and retrieve the country's historic lands.

It all boils down to: The Big Guy needs his 10%!
Do you really believe it is not?
Then there was no reason for a treaty, so why did Russia want a treaty that turned the land over to try em?
Wishful thinking but who does China attack after Russia and the US go toe to toe? The world. Russia is a declining power, how much could be snipped off if powers worked together?
