    Right? At the very least they should get Vladivostok back if they help unfuck the situation. Anything less would basically be bad faith on the West’s part. If Russia was going to pieces I’d actually expect the whole Far East to end up in their sphere, minus maybe some or all of Transbaikal.

    I know, I know, you’re not supposed to carve up other people’s territory anymore. They kind of opened the door to it by trying to carve up Europe, though, and China has no particular attachment to the concept of local self-determination. Also, this is NCD.

      A man can dream :D

      It’d just be so fucking satisfying: help, help, they’re invading us, we’re a sovereign nation, that’s our city, those are our people!

      And not even Kim would send arty that was going to be fired at Xi lol… russia’s resources would evaporate overnight.
