the arena of not only ideological, but also geopolitical struggle for territories and
resources. One of the most pressing issues is the ownership of Siberia and its

by some public figures of these states. The author concludes that, regardless of
ethnic origin, Nikifor Chernigovsky participated in the Russian development of the
Amur region neither as an initiative Polack or Ukrainian, nor as a foreigner in the
Russian service, but as an Orthodox Christian and a citizen of the Russian state |
