  In Beijing’s view, in the absence of an explicit treaty provision, the central line of the main channel—the Thalweg principle—provided a legal basis for delimiting the boundary in the two rivers. On this basis, Beijing claimed that 600 of the rivers’ 700 islands—including Zhenbao Island on the Ussuri River, just 180 miles southwest of an important Soviet city, Khabarovsk—belonged to the P.R.C.

  Despite many rounds of talks, a solution to the problem does not seem imminent. On the contrary, China has had a tendency to subtly and surreptitiously move into unclaimed areas; these tactics were first evident during the Zhenbao incident and have also been a regular feature in both the Western (Ladakh and Lahaul Spiti) and Eastern (Arunachal and Sikkim) sectors.
