Amid rising tension between India and China, Russian Embassy in India tweeted a video celebrating the 160th anniversary of the founding of Vladivostok. And the same didn't go well with Chinese netizens. This city was under Chinese control until 1860, after that Russia conquered it. However, some people in China claimed that this land was annexed by Russia during the Tsar era after the country's defeat in the Second Opium War.
