NEWS: After India, China's claim over Russia?

China and Russia got into diplomatic and internet war over Russian embassy official posting photo for celebrations of 160th anniversary of the founding for Vladivostok on weibo.
Chinese official including internet users claimed that Vladivostok was a part of China and homeland to Qing Manchurian. During Tsar era, Vladivostok was annexed in 1860 after China's defeat in second opium war as claimed by officials.
This backlash came after China imposed National Security law in Hong Kong which led to large scale protests in Hong Kong.
China was also involved in border disputes with India leading to clash between Indian military and Chinese army resulting into causalities on both sides.
