If it was part of Qing, and Qing fell, why should Chinese Republican govt and/or PRC have any say in the matter?

ROC took over the assets and liabilities of the qing, just like russia did with the soviet union

So Tibet belongs to the ROC and the mainlanders have no rights to it... Interesting.

PRC, ROC and Tibet can claim all the rights it wants, but buddy, you have to back it up militarily and politically.

What liabilities did the Russian oligarchs take on?

existing treaties with china, us, plus nuclear arsenal etc.

Oligarchs manage treaties with China, nuclear arsenal etc?
