The military base on the island of Matua as a harbinger of the surrender of the Kuriles of Japan

80
Today we are witnessing how Japan is beginning to act actively in the framework of the project on sharing the disputed Kuril Islands. Against this background, the question arises of creating a naval base on the island of Matua. Experts believe that this may be a harbinger of the surrender of some of the islands of Japan.

        And in my opinion, the question should be asked this way: And which of the politicians, including those active, except for the liberals, would dare to give at least some part of Russia to foreigners?

            Since 1970, there was a territorial dispute about the border between states in the Barents Sea. Its essence boils down to the fact that Russia drew a border along the coast of Svalbard Island, Norway believed that the border should be equidistant from Svalbard on one side and Franz Josef Land and Novaya Zemlya Island on the other. As the states were on friendly terms, the border dispute seldom arose in any actions; occasionally, Russian fishing vessels were detained. However, in the future, the dispute escalated, since hydrocarbon reserves were discovered in the Barents Sea, including in the disputed waters.
            In April 2010, the parties agreed that the new delimitation line would divide the disputed water into two equal parts

            These islands have been "given back" since 1991, and the 18 PULAD has been re-equipped and saturated with the islands by air defense systems, air defense systems, radar stations, airfields are being restored ...., new ones are being built ...
            The very base in the future will play a great military strategic importance. There they will build an airfield, which theoretically can be used over time as a “jump airfield” for Russian Tu-22 M3 long-range bombers capable of carrying X-101 long-range cruise missiles. From this airdrome, they will be able to fly to areas of the Pacific remote from our coast in order to strike in the United States if necessary. That is, not only strategic bombers will be able to fulfill this goal, but also long-range bombers. This will greatly enhance the capabilities of the Russian strategic non-nuclear deterrence of the United States and NATO. It will also play an important role for the deployment of Russian nuclear missile carriers, since aviation based on it will be able to monitor American submarines in this region. Thus, additional protection for the Russian submarine base in Vilyuchensk will appear. And anti-submarine helicopters will be able to control the passage into the Sea of ​​Okhotsk, and minimize the possibility of penetration of NATO submarines into it.

              Talk in riddles again. Which party? Communist or bourgeois? On the one hand, in Russia there is now a multi-party system! And on the other hand, who are you from the Soviet government now, as I understand it, what do you mean by the Communist Party in the current government of the Russian Federation?
              In addition, the video for the article “Military base on the island of Matua as a harbinger of the surrender of the Kuril Islands of Japan” on “VO” expresses concern not so much about Turup as about Matua.

Capital is including capital goods, extra-educated specialists and the education system, raw materials and energy. It all keeps dying

                  Capitalism or socialism is determined not by the state of energy or finances, but by the attitude to ownership of the means of production, which, being in the hands of the ruling class, serve as an instrument of exploitation of workers, those people who do not have property, who live by selling their opportunity to work. "Extra-educated specialists" are also exploited, and not capital, in terms of income they belong to the so-called. "middle class", but can also be thrown into the trash for lack of demand.
                  So: we, by all indications, have oligarchic state-monopoly capitalism. This is Lenin, not me.

                      You are confused because you got into a sphere where there is not enough speculation and reasoning, in which everything has long been defined and painted. You should read Marx’s “Capital” and Lenin’s “Imperialism as the Highest Stage of Capitalism” before arguing. Books are sold in any bookstore and even on the Internet. Capitalism is and exists in the Russian Federation despite someone else's subjective opinions and judgments.

                Dear Tatyana! It is so erotic to talk about something without understanding the essence of the issue! Is not it? Have you been to the Kuril Islands? Admire from the ship? See on the map? Underline whatever applicable! Do you know the essence of the Kuril question from the documents? From the press? From conversations? Have you heard somewhere? Underline whatever applicable!
                Judging by the fact that Iturup has become Turup for you, you have very deep knowledge of the subject matter. Go on! Everything is so with us through ... in the Russian Federation and it is being done that such "specialists" are engaged in solving state problems.
                If you decide to just flood - this is a good reason.
                You cannot give away territories if you feel the truth behind you, but the truth is not on Russia’s side on this issue ... That, apparently, is understood by our leadership. We now need to keep the disputed territories as long as possible, maybe by then Japan will become independent and independent.

                  Dear Nikolai!
                  As for Iturup (“Turup”), I apologize for the fact that I did not notice this typo in myself! My laptop slows down a little, but still I sometimes trust him and do not double-check what I have written. But in vain! Yes This is not the first time he has failed. I just can’t get ready to take it to the programmers - I need it all the time.
                  Territory should not be given if you feel the truth, but on this issue the truth is not on the side of Russia ..
                  But this is interesting! If possible, can you give a link to what your current point of view is based on? And then there are a lot of different opinions.
                  maybe by then Japan will become independent and independent.
                  This can happen only when the United States disappears. But there is China. So Russia cannot count on an independent and independent Japan!
                  I have never been to the Far East. My acquaintances were from there, in my opinion, from Sakhalin. People are very beautiful, good. They talked about what rich fishing places there and about nature told how everything grows richly there.

Russia, as a rule, creates its own problems with its own hands, and then heroically overcomes them ...
                    As for Japan’s dependence on China, they have territorial claims, but China will never put the Japanese in such dependence as the United States. Give now even one islet of Japan - immediately get the US base under your nose and lose control of the Sea of ​​Okhotsk.

        Therefore, they did not create that the approaches to this bumblebee are complete ..., the weather in 90% of cases does not contribute to landing, unloading, or simply anchoring. Under the USSR, the Council of Ministers moved brains, not ambitions, and saved national money.

      Drive these fussy little rags ** with their rags to their historical lands! They came to Hokkaido with fire and a sword - maybe it’s been hard for them to come back from a couple of centuries, but in the Kuril Islands, except in piracy and murder, they were never seen in anything smart, masterful, zealous. They are hiding behind the ayans - it has already been proven that there are zero kinships along, that these people have multiple Caucasoid signs, and not Korean-Chinese ones. Generally I do not understand the meaning and benefits of understanding by statesmen in the configuration of the bullshit of some kind of mare.

        Well, it’s like I don’t care about fat now ... No, the question is still about the islands, but a little not the same, although there are also fourYes And on the agenda there is no longer “joint economic activity”, but the very fact of the existence of “four ugly islands in the ocean” - Dear Chairman Kim Jong-un will not let you lie. laughing Shinzo-san in the last couple of months, as if a hedgehog swallowed, yeah.

        All the Japanese islands were taken away by the Japanese (now the Japanese! Previously, as I believe, they were Chinese) from the indigenous people, on most of the islands they were Ainu. Japanese culture is a hybrid of Chinese and indigenous cultures of the Japanese islands, since the period of war and crowding out (annihilation) lasted about 1000 years. If you return to that period - you need to drive the Japanese from ALL the islands.

      I propose introducing amendments to the Constitution! The fact that the alienation of any territory of the Russian Federation can not be carried out by the current government, and it is possible only with a positive decision of the popular referendum! Otherwise, this gang will see through everything led by Pu

      Not owning complete information on any of the issues, the author is utter nonsense. Regarding the Kuril Islands: flirting with Japan will end, ultimately, with the transfer of the islands of Kunashir and Iturup (from the Greater Kuril Islands) and the islands of the Lesser Kuril Ridge (Habomai) with Shikotan, you must be an idiot not to understand this: why then all the fuss? Japanese donkeys to react to carrots? It would be possible to send everyone away for a long time, but Russia is the successor of the USSR, unfortunately, there is a memorandum of 1956. Apparently, everyone is waiting for a radical change in the political situation, since Japan is under US occupation. The transfer of the islands will now worsen Russia's strategic position in the Pacific.
      Matua Island is a bumblebee in the Kuril ridge, where you can place air defense units, a small airfield, but not the connection of the Navy ships - there are no conditions for basing. For these purposes, it would be reasonable to use Broughton Bay on Simushir, where in the Soviet era the connection of the Navy ships was based, It is also possible to place an aerodrome for heavy aircraft.

      If the rulers are doing everything right, then the welfare of the people should grow, if not then not. Medvedev gave Norway territory, Putin returned the Crimea, stood up for Syria, etc. Where and in what place did this wealth grow? When will it grow? Something is not visible to the people on the adopted budget for the clearance! If according to Kudrin, then our economic growth is planned at 1% per year until 2035. Since there is no gap in the economy, everything is possible, up to the surrender of territories, Alaska is an example of this.

      As soon as the power passes to frank liberals such as dog-mongers in cooperation with Jewish entrepreneurs, owners of large companies, then the transfer of the islands to the Japanese will begin, and with it the loss of the Sea of ​​Okhotsk as internal to Russia. Yes, there should be no economic activity on the islands of the Kuril Ridge with the participation of the Japanese. After all, it will be a quiet squeezing of Russians - entrepreneurs from the Kuril Islands. Ponder over the government before it's too late.

      I don’t think that having returned Crimea Russia will give at least an inch of the Kuril Islands. This question is also finally closed. And the GDP has openly spoken about this more than once. No matter how hard the liberals tried, it’s too tough for them. Here it’s quite possible to get on the teeth!

      on this issue, the truth is not on the side of Russia ..

      Still, what is the truth?
      USSR victory over Japan in 1945. led to the fact that:
      - the contract of 1875 was dropped. between RI and Japan on the exchange of southern Sakhalin to the Kuril Islands (from Kamchatka to Urup inclusively) and these Kuril Islands are returned,
      - the Japanese-Russian Portsmouth Treaty of 1905 was dropped. and the loss of RI. South Sakhalin is back
      - the Japanese-Russian Simodsky tract of 1855 was discarded, which actually fixed the RI-Japan border between the islands of Urup-Iturup; The Kuril Islands were taken: Iturup, Kunashir, Shikotan, the Habomai Islands.
      The drawback of the current situation is that there is no peace treaty with Japan (did you somehow live without it since 1945?)
      It is impossible to arithmetically compare the volumes of the treaties of 1905 and 1945: the lesson must be learned.
      And yet: in addition to the above, in our common history there are many other, significant facts, the value of their meaning is interpreted in the opposite.

      I heard a ringing and do not know where he is. There is no connection. Yes, complete nonsense. Nobody is going to give the Kuril Islands to the Japanese, which has been repeatedly stated, both personally by Putin and the rest of the Russian authorities. The island of Matua belongs to Russia, and without its consent there can be no talk of any Japanese military base, but what is being jointly mastered is good, if civilian infrastructure is developed there, for example.

        It seems to me that you did not understand the essence. The base on Matua will be built to replace the base on the South Kuril Islands due to their uncertain (according to the views of liberals in the government) status.

      It is impossible to believe in the voluntary transfer of the South Kuril Islands. Arguing amateurishly, Russia is more likely to create an understudy, because the possibility of the capture of the Kuril Islands by superior forces (Japan, 7th Fleet, 8th US Army) cannot be ruled out in case of armed conflict. It is hardly worth counting on Russia's nuclear power, in the case of protecting 4 islands. So, no need to panic, we are preparing for all possible situations. This is what Matua is for.
