SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
In the summer of 1969, China and the Soviet Union teetered at the brink of war. Looking to exploit a perceived vulnerability, Soviets used the language of national liberation to encourage minority peoples along the Sino-Soviet border to collaborate in efforts to destabilize the Chinese frontier. In the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, the so-called "Eastern Turkistan People's Revolutionary Party" heeded this call.
