Kuropatkin, A[lexei] N[ikolayevich]. Russko-Kitaiskii vopros [ID D37388].
"A yellow peril threatens Russia…Without waiting for China to develop an offensive capability against Russia, the right and duty of Russia is likewise obvious to occupy straightaway those Asian positions, which would enable her not only to save for unborn generations their birthright in Asia acquired two hundred years ago, but also to guarantee success in the likely war between the yellow race and the white race when that struggle arises."
