What's new

With China's backing, Russia officially annexes Donbas, Kherson, Zaporazhia. War begins!

Officially no way is China backing any such referendum. Then they'd look like fools if the question of referendum comes up in Tibet, HK and Taiwan.
 
Taiwan never had a referendum. And if they did, China would call it a sham.


LOL

Tibet, HK and Taiwan are already Chinese territiries.

You misunderstood. If china recognises a sham referendum in Ukraine, then they would have no locus standi to object the results of any such referendum that could be conducted in the future in China (including Taiwan).

Even India or Pakistan would never accept such referendums as they have their own similar internal issues.

China would never allow HK or Tibet to hold a referendum. The only way they can hold a referendum is if the US invades and occupies a portion of them and conduct a referendum the way the US invaded Serbia and conducted a referendum in Kosovo.
 
K read somewhere the Russia wants to occupy and annex all Ukrainian territories next to the sea. How close is he if that's the case.

Referendum is needed only when the land is not yours.

So China does not need to conduct any referendums.

Will India conduct a referendum if Mumbai wants to be part of India?

You can never say never. Everything is a possibility and competent administrators will always consider the worst case scenario similar to what you have mentioned in your post. There is zero benefit for China or any other country to recognise these sham elections in Ukraine. Only a pariah state like North Korea has nothing to lose in recognising these new states.

If there were enough disgruntled people in Mumbai, you wouldn't need permission of the government to conduct a referendum. It will begin as a movement similar to Catalonia in Spain. Obviously these are worst case scenarios and unlikely to happen.

China does what is in China's interest. A weaker Ukraine and a stronger Russia is in China's interest. Ukraine in an American vassal. Russia is a Chinese vassal.
