The “worst” signal for Japan. He entered from the Russian Southern Kuriles

106
At the Japanese premier, Shinzo Abe is being crushed: they say, how are we with the “northern territories”? And the prime minister is nervous. But Moscow, on the contrary, shows complete calm. And really: why worry?





Moscow, it seems, is in no hurry to resolve the issue of the Southern Kuriles, Bloomberg writes. Yes, the leaders of the two states, Japan and Russia, often meet, but the recent Russian military exercises held in the region say that Tokyo is unlikely to achieve the desired progress in the near future. Contrary to Shinzo Abe’s attempts to target Putin at the question of settling the “territorial dispute”, Russia continues to strengthen the military component on the islands. As a result, the Japanese authorities had to express an "official protest" after Russian troops conducted exercises in the "northern territories", notes "InoTV".

In addition, the Japanese do not like the fact that the Russians are going to open the first military base in the region in the “territories”.

But just recently, February 6, Russian and Japanese diplomats met to discuss Japanese-Russian projects to accelerate the economic development of the islands. And on February 7 in celebration of the “Day of the Northern Territories”, Prime Minister Abe promised that he and Putin would resolve the issue of the “abnormal” absence of a peace treaty.

And what if Mr. Abe fails to achieve a “settlement” of the issue? His reputation will perish. After all, he was the conductor of the idea of ​​"settlement".

Moscow is also unlucky: cooling from Tokyo would lead to the loss of quite possible Japanese investments. Moscow’s attempts to distance Tokyo from Washington would have failed.

The head of the Council on Foreign and Defense Policy of Russia, Fedor Lukyanov, comments on the situation in the following delicate way:

"The Japanese side had unrealistic ideas about a possible time frame for the implementation of their plans."


* * *


In a word, wherever you throw, everywhere is a wedge. But already there was talk of a "breakthrough" in solving the Kuril "issue", almost about the close victory of Tokyo in the dispute over the "northern territories". About the "breakthrough" moments reported in public Abe himself. And where is his loud speech now?

But Abe and Putin met and "discussed" the corresponding question about two dozen times. And now analysts agree: these discussions were not very useful. At least for Japan. Tokyo was unable to bargain for anything. As noted, not without irony, Yasuhide Nakayama, head of the foreign affairs committee of the lower house of the Japanese parliament, “warm relations at the highest level” is good, but this “does not mean that they [Russian friends] will give the islands back.” According to the expert, the Russian military exercises gave Japan "the worst possible signal."

            Each time, regular negotiations with the Japanese are presented as the greatest achievement of modern Russian politics. Although, remembering the "gifts" to other countries in the form of islands on the Amur, many thousands of square kilometers in the Bering and Barents Seas, the feeling that Japan's expectations are not unfounded does not leave.

          And this is almost the entire "city" (the largest, as I noted above) and this is almost the entire island.

          And so it’s all


          People live there.
          CONSTANTLY, not on duty but LIVING and not able to leave. In eternal exile, in eternal hard labor.
          Abandoned by the world and the Motherland.
          Even living on Sakhalin, you often suffer from limited mobility (30 minutes by car in any direction and you are by the sea), but after visiting the Kuril Islands, you understand that this is probably how the bears feel in the zoo and fish in the aquarium ... In a dirty zoo and not a cleaned aquarium ..

              Devastation, it’s in your head when you live in the middle of the forest and too lazy to take an ax and a saw to fix a barn. Living on a volcano island, where sedge and bamboo are higher and nothing grows, devastation - it is all around, no matter how carefully it was treated. Time erases even rocks in the sand.

                So then it is so, everything is imported to the islands and the price tag from this flies to heaven. It’s clear that this is not Siberia; you won’t put a sawmill there. And to console the inhabitants, brace yourself, hold on, they say, this is stupid. They only hope for themselves, in fact, as elsewhere in Russia. Happened to be there.

            Someone does not want and cannot change something in his life. He can scold the authorities, drink vodka, but do not change anything, because his pathetic little mind can not figure out what and how. It’s like going to the neighboring villages, and you don’t see such a thing, the whole youth parted, who wanted to, who want something, live in cities, study, get married. Who did not want to, in the dachas metal drags from time to time. It’s in my head.

              It only says that you and yourself can’t imagine the conditions on the Kuril Islands. Even just the climate. Not to mention the remoteness and price tag for basic things, such as diapers or other hygiene products.
              Before the birth of a child, people in a container take everything they need to the proc, because it can happen that they find themselves in very long isolation from the world, especially in winter. And in the summer, storms are more the norm than something from the category of bad weather.
              People there do not live like that because they are lazy or thump, but because they don’t have any place and from which to do something.

                "Only your mind can reveal it."
                Mr. Insular do not stoop to insults of the opponent, I did not try to insult you. My phrase had nothing to do with the residents of the Kuril Islands, if you are talking about it, it was about those whom I personally encountered. As for the thumping people in our village - I can’t say anything more, because if once they were people, then vodka corroded everything. I sincerely tried to help some people get on their feet, get a job, but no, they don’t want to work, laziness, but to steal money from me - that’s please.
                As for my "little mind", I don’t have a complex here - I work as a team leader, who himself created and raised two generations of excellent leaders who now work with me, and also got out at one time as best he could and was unbearably hard.
                And looking at your photos of the Kuril Islands, on the contrary I am inclined to move there, I am already starting to look for a beautiful calm place to meet old age.

I commented on your post with only one emotion - I do not like moaning about how everything is useless with us. The conclusion is what - to give to others?

But here is situevina such that once the GDP has accumulated a bunch of babos in reserves, stocked up nearly 2 thousand tons of gold, strained the "partners" in the Middle East, then let the situation settle for the next 6 years. And then some “wise guy” will come, let all the reserves go, squander a little gold, break his forehead in bows to the mattresses and return the Crimea and the Kuril Islands to boot. They will forgive us all at once and who we will confront then, I don’t even know. No enemies, no babos, no work - hello to the new 90s!

Economic relations are developing, let them pay and say what they want, we should have our own plans in them, the Kuril Islands are purely Russian land .... And Senka listens, but eats ...

      Yes, these islands do not need the Japanese. They don’t particularly populate their northern island, it’s cold for them there, they are bunching up where it’s warmer, but it’s better for us - everything is in one place, beat, I don’t want to. The Amers need the islands to close the Pacific Fleet in Primorye, then only from Kamchatka will the exit remain.

    I liked it very much: "Moscow will not be lucky either: cooling from Tokyo would lead to the loss of completely possible Japanese investments." There was no such investment, and it would not have been. Americans will not give. Yes, and cross-eyed consider us an inferior race. The Japs smile and talk about peace and friendship with their northern neighbor, while they themselves form full-fledged armed forces, which are prohibited by the Japanese constitution. American missile defense is deployed and all that. What kind of investments can we talk about if the "Japanese peace" is directed against Russia? And the islands are ours, including Hokkaido.

    In fact, the struggle is not for the islands, but for the adjacent water area. There is a great strait for the exit of our submarines. And if you give these 4 islands to the Japanese, this strait will be controlled by the Americans next week. It will just be clogged with hydrophones.

    It is possible that for Abe these are prerequisites for early resignation, Washington will send him to the pot. The idea of ​​creating a base in the Kuril Islands is good. I would place missile defense systems, air defense systems and "Iskander" systems there, and their cover, to cross-suppress American bases on the Japanese islands. Placing nuclear weapons in the Kuril Islands is impractical. The personnel must be selected taking into account the fact that they are actually suicide bombers and they will know about it.

You don’t even have to stutter about military bases, as long as you continue to be occupied by a country that has dropped atomic bombs on you, and you are worn out.

    Japan with its technologies and capitals, the eastern neighbor (Russia) is more important than the United States. And their lack of desire to make political, economic and military rapprochement with Russia will leave the question of the northern territories unresolved forever. The military bases on the Kuril Islands and along the coast of the Sea of ​​Okhotsk, about Kamchatka and Chukotka, I don’t say anything at all, you need to revive yesterday (as they say) and by leaps and bounds, not everything that was built during the Soviet era has been plundered!
