In obedience to history.

After Vladimir Putin’s interview with American journalist Tucker Carlson, where the head of the Kremlin called "historical reasons" for attacking Ukraine, American-Chinese actor Robert Wu said that according to this logic, Russia should give Vladivostok, occupied 100 years ago, back to Beijing.

He wrote about this on his X page, commenting on a post by former Xinhua News Agency employee and now specialist at the Center for China and Globalization (CCG) think tank Zichen Wang.

In his message, Wang called Putin's "historical lectures" "unconstructive."

"The interview (Putin - ed.) once again confirms my bias: obsession with history is usually not constructive. Why should we refer to the 8th or 13th century and not 220 BC? We live in the present with laws, not in the 8th century, " he noted.

American-Chinese actor Robert Wu responded to this message, writing: "According to history, Russia should give us back Vladivostok and the vast territory stolen 100-odd years ago".
