Controversy

On July 2, 2020, the Russian Embassy posted a post on Weibo commemorating the 160th anniversary of the founding of Vladivostok, and specified the meaning of the city name as "conquering the East". However, the city was part of the territory ceded to Western nations in Qing China's Convention of Peking, and enraged Chinese netizens. [9] The embassy deleted the post the next day, and reposted the commemoration without the specificity about the city name. [10]
