Japanese policy in Russia, which was carried out at the former chairman of the Government of Sindiso Abe, was failing. New leadership is worth considering this and reconsider many moments. This is reported by the local ASAHI edition.
So in the publication commented on the words of the Prime Minister of Russia Mikhail Mishoustina, who on July 26 visited the Kuril Islands and said that the introduction of a free customs territory and tax holidays for entrepreneurs and investors operating on the islands was now being discussed.
The authors of the article outraged the fact that Moscow could offer economic cooperation on Kurilh not only Tokyo, but also to other states. According to the position of Japan, challenging the island in the Kuril Ridge, are the “original” Japanese territory, in connection with which Tokyo insists on special conditions, in which certain laws of Russia would not be applied to citizens and business data of these territories.
Inviting other countries, in addition to Japan, there is a controversy with the concept of cooperation, which is only she. In this case, with the participation of business from third countries, Japan can remain with anything, “said in the publication.
The publications reminded how former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe with pride spoke of Vladimir Putin Agreements to Joint Economic Activities in Kurili, but it was only a “unreasonable optimistic conclusion.” Therefore, the article called for recognizing the fact that the negotiations went into a dead end, and the old policy against Moscow is failing. The revision of foreign policy relations and building a new policy with Russia lies at the current government of ECIHIDE Suga, stressed in the publication.
“It’s time to spend a thorough revision of relations between Japan and Russia. No matter how much” diplomacy “uses Japan, its policy cannot be convincing for the international community, if it does not frankly talk about the behavior of Russia in relation to neighboring Countries and concerns situation with human rights, “the report says.
Previously, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan called the Russian ambassador Mikhail Galuzin and expressed him a protest in connection with the trip of Mishoustin to the South Room Island ITUURUP. Galusin declared the intimacy of the protest of the Japanese side. According to him, such actions of Tokyo are unacceptable, based on the basic position of Russia in relation to Kuril.
In the Japanese government acknowledged that there are certain problems in the country’s relations with Russia, and therefore a number of government officials appear to a new summit with the Russian side – meeting the premiere of Japan Yoshihide Sugi and President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin.
Moscow and Tokyo cannot sign a peace treaty on the results of the Second World War due to the territorial dispute around the southern part of Kuril. Japan considers the Islands of ITUURUP, Kunashir, Shikotan and a group of Habmioma Islands with its “northern territories”. Moscow does not recognize the very fact of the territorial dispute.
