Chinese media: Sad that Sakhalin is Russian
The theme of regret that part of the former Chinese territories was transferred to Russia during the historical process is quite common in the Chinese media.
The material of the publication Sohu, whose journalist told why Beijing regrets the loss of Sakhalin, which, until the middle of the XIX century, was in the orbit of Chinese influence, was no exception.
The main reason for the Chinese regret is the natural resources that the island has: oil fields explored on Sakhalin, according to Chinese estimates, contain seven million tons of “black gold” and can bring Russia $ 500 billion.
In his article, the journalist tells the story of the discovery by the Russian archaeologists of the ancient Chinese artifact - a stone stele on which the verses of Qianlong, the sixth emperor of the Qing dynasty, who ruled in the XVIII century, were carved.
Poems of the Chinese emperor tell about his successes and that no one can compare with him. The Chinese journalist finds a certain irony in the fact that the emperor’s poems were found on land that later became Russian.
In conclusion, it should be noted that while expressing regret that the former territories of the Celestial Empire became Russian, Chinese journalists acknowledge their legal transition to Russia and refrain from revenge calls.
