FOREIGN ACR; AN AIRBUS 340 TAXIED INTO US (DC9) AND IMPACTED OUR TAIL WITH THEIR WING. WE (DC9) WERE STOPPED WITH PARKING BRAKE SET. WE WERE MINNEAPOLIS TO CHICAGO. THE A340 HIT US AT XA50 ON DEC/XA/00. AFTER CAPT LANDED ON RWY 9L ORD; GND CTL CLRED US TO TAXI VIA TXWY P; TXWY H TO TXWY B. PROCEEDED DOWN TXWY B TO A10. IN THE INTXN OF A10 AND TXWY B THERE WAS A DISABLED ACFT WAITING FOR A TUG. THE CAPT STOPPED AND SET THE PARKING BRAKE. GND ASKED US IF WE COULD STILL MAKE A9. I SAID NO; WE WERE TOO FAR PAST A9 AND UNABLE TO TURN BACK. GND CONFIRMED THAT THE ACFT AT A10/TXWY B WAS WAITING FOR A TUG. GND TOLD US TO HOLD POS UNTIL ACFT WAS MOVED. CAPT MADE A PA TO PAX INFORMING THEM THERE WAS CONGESTION AND IT WOULD BE A FEW MINS UNTIL WE COULD TAXI IN TO THE GATE. I REMAINED ON GND FREQ. WITHIN A FEW MINS AFTER THE PA; THE NOSE OF DC9 ABRUPTLY MOVED TO L. THE PLANE (OUR DC9) WAS STOPPED WITH THE BRAKES SET BEFORE THIS MOVEMENT. CAPT IMMEDIATELY CONFIRMED THE BRAKES WERE SET.
