A LOT of countries on the planet talk about annexing their former territories, like Orbans Hungary. Others have actually done it (Armenia- Azerbaijan).

What do you want to do about it? Start a world war with them just in case to provent them from doing it (further)? Bombing them in the name of peace?

Which is what China is doing because the US is a liability to everyone not in their sphere of influence. But that's bad apparently.
