ABSTRACT

The state-to-state cross-border interactions and relations between Russia and China both have significant geopolitical, economic, and cultural ramifications. However, without synchronisation between the two tiers of relations, the two countries will never be able to be sure that their traumatic past would not be repeated. Geopolitically, whereas the Russia-China relationship primarily focuses on great-power interactions on a global scale, the Russian Far East-Northeast China relationship possibly represents a key influence in Northeast Asia and the greater Asia-Pacific Region. Cross-border relations between Russia and China are crucial in determining how much regionalism—which will also affect “the Koreas, Mongolia, and Japan”—will emerge in the “Northeast Asia” and how well Russia will be able to balance its reputation as a European power with the eagerly awaited status as an Asian power. The Russian Far East views China as a foreign civilization that surrounds its European outpost and as a country that seeks geopolitical control, starting with the demarcation, as well as striving to achieve geoeconomic superiority, initially through labour migration and trade.

Key words: Russia, China, Russian Fart East, Northeast China, Cross-border Relation, Migration Dynamics, Demographic Expansion.
