    Ah, choosing to ignore the territorial annexation that took place during the war or annexations that failed? And China?

      Yes, because that was the original framing. I guess the West did their own annexing, or OP would have kept the focus on those annexations.

      What are the failed Russian annexations?

      China did Tibet and tried Vietnam, as far as I know, as well as some Indian disputes. I was wondering if there are more because depending on the country, there were reasons enough for the annexations that an alignment with China was not unreasonable. BRICS shows that those annexations are not show stoppers.
