Does anyone have any view about the odds that China will in the next several decades press claims on Russian territory? I have heard that there is a Chinese view that some of Siberia is historically Chinese. When one combines collapsing Russian demographics, seemingly declining military power and a Chinese desire for natural resources and lebensraum it could get ugly.

But I have no idea if that's a plausible scenario.
