Subject: [BoundaryPoint] Significant border disputes

Now that it looks like Guatemala may actually sign a treaty
acknowledging the existance of Belize, what significant border
disputes over land (Fishing rights are a completely different Kettle
of fish) remain

AR-UK (Falklands)
IN-PK-CN (Kashmir)
IQ-KW (existance of KW)

Note,
In my mind ISR-Palestinians don't quite fall into what I'm looking
for but still trying to quantify it.

Why do you not count Israeli-Palestinian.  There is land that Israel thinks belongs to it and Palestinians say otherwise.  Even if this doesn't count (b/c Palestine is not a state), then you at least have Israel-Syria.  The Golan Heights and a smaller area south of the Sea of Galilee as well that Israel annexed after the six days war.
 
What about China-Taiwan or China-Tibet.  Also, does Bolivia still want to be in some way compensated for Chile taking their Pacific Coast or is that ancient history?  What about in the Balkans?  Is there anything going on there with Kosovo or any other dispute involving Serbia or former Yugoslavian Federation members and what about Russia-Chechnya or Iraq-Turkey-Kurd?
 
And what about Cyprus? http://www.oakland.edu/~aglavas/kypro.htm
