19世纪末,帝国主义掀起了瓜分中国的狂潮,主要以强租租借地和划分势力范围为标志。租期为99年的租借条约,反映了帝国主义想通过“国际法”的合法外衣,长期占领中国领土企图。本文从租期为99年的来历、实质以及租金问题两方面说明近代帝国主义在西方宣扬民主、法制的背后,对中国却是穷凶极恶的侵略。 At the end of the 19th century, imperialism set off a frenzy of carving up China, mainly marked by the leasing of rented land and the division of its sphere of influence. The 99-year charterparty reflects the long-term attempt of the imperialists to occupy China’s territory by trying to pass the legal outerwear of “international law.” This article shows that the modern imperialism behind the promotion of democracy and the legal system in the West from both the 99-year leasehold and the rent issue shows that it is a vicious act of aggression against China.
