Chinese media discuss the division of Russia. Openly.
Yesterday, on NetEase - one of the largest Chinese media platforms - a text with the headline: "If Russia collapses, 7 million square kilometers cannot be lost" was published.
It's about the Far East. And this is not an analysis - it's an instruction.
Key theses:
The Far East is a "chicken rib" for Russia, but a "treasure" for China.
There are less than 50 thousand military personnel left in the Far East - a "empty shell".
Russia's GDP is "smaller than one Chinese province".
It's impossible to take it by force - it will be like with Crimea. It's necessary to "support pro-Chinese forces" and "tie them with loans".
The goal: "nominally independent, but practically dependent on China".
Direct quote: "Whose land is it? It's just a name - the vital arteries are in our hands".
While Kremlin propaganda talks about "great friendship", Chinese media calmly discuss how to take over a third of Russian territory "when the political landscape changes".
Friendship is friendship, but seven million square kilometers - separately.
Next: Remember Beefy’s deep dive on Haishenwa? You may know this Chinese city russia stole from China and now calls it Vladivostok. It will be taken back at some point - now seems a good time to do it!
