Mijiddorjiin Khanddorj ((モンゴル語:Мижиддоржийн Ханддорж), ; 1869 – 1915), also known by his title ''Chin Van'' Khanddorj, was an aristocrat and prominent early 20th century Mongolian independence leader. He served as minister of foreign affairs of Autonomous Mongolia in the government of the Bogd Khan from 1911 until 1915. Khanddorj was born in 1869 in present day Bulgan Province, the grandson of Tserendorj, military governor of Tüsheet Khan Province. Khanddorj became assistant military governor of the province at age 23 in 1892 and then full commander from 1897 to 1900. Growing up in an enlightened aristocratic family, he studied Old Mongolian, Manchu and Chinese languages and later mastered some Russian. Khanddorj became acquainted with the 13th Dalai Lama in 1904 when the Tibetan Buddhist leader fled to Ikh Khüree and the Wang Monastery (present day Bulgan city after the British expedition to Tibet by Francis Younghusband. Afterwards, Khanddorj sent his son to Lhasa to be educated. When Manchu authorities in Beijing later executed his son by beheading for violating protocol, and delivered the head on a platter to his father, Khanddorj's resentment of Manchu rule in Outer Mongolia intensified. In 1910 Khanddorj was invited to Ikh Khüree to become an advisor to the Jebtsundamba Khutuktu. Disastisfied with Beijing's New Administration Policy on governing Mongolia, the Jebtsundamba Khutuktu, Khanddorj, and other Mongolian nobles began to discuss the possibility of independence in earnest and in the summer of 1911 met in a secret congress to plot further strategy. The Khutuktu was persuaded to send a delegation headed by Khanddorj to Russia to seek assistance. In Saint Petersburg Khanddorj asked for Russia's help, to include the provision of arms, in protecting Mongolia's fledgling independence against Chinese incursions, and implied that Russian troops would be needed against a Chinese unit which the Mongolians believed was at that moment advancing into Mongolia. The Russian government decided to support, by diplomatic rather than by military means, not full independence for Mongolia, but autonomy within the Qing empire. In the new independent government, Khanddorj was appointed minister of foreign affairs but an internal power struggle erupted almost immediately between Khanddorj and Minister of Internal Affairs Da Lam Tserenchimed over whose ministry would hold more prestige. At the end of 1912 Khanddorj headed another delegation to St. Petersburg, this time to secure diplomatic relations between the newly independent Mongolia and the Russian Empire which resulted in the 1912 Russian-Mongolian treaty. Khanddorj was strong Russophile and was distrusted by a number of high officials in the Bogd Khan's government, especially Gonchigjalzangiin Badamdorj, minister of religion and state, who complained to the Bogd Khan about Khanddorj's alleged treasonable intentions. As a result, in 1913 Khanddorj was removed as head of the Foreign Ministry and was not a member of the government delegation at the Treaty of Kyakhta conference in 1915. Soon after Khanddorj was allegedly assassinated, dying of poisoning after attending a reception at the Bogd Khan's residence. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mijiddorjiin Khanddorj」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
