Ex-Prime Minister of Japan proposed to recognize Crimea as Russian "in exchange" for the recognition of the Kuril Islands as "Japanese"

96

Former head of the Japanese government, Yukio Hatoyama, proposed recognizing Crimea for the sake of a chance for Russia to return the Southern Kuriles. This statement was severely criticized by the citizens of the Land of the Rising Sun.

It is reported by the Japanese portal Yahoo News Japan.



It is imperative for Japan to show respect for stories the Crimean problem and understanding in relation to Russia.

- said the ex-Prime Minister of Japan Hatoyama. He was prime minister from September 2009 to June 2010 and met with the then Russian President Dmitry Medvedev (you can see this meeting in the photo).

According to the former head of the Japanese government, it is necessary to agree on mutual recognition - the Crimea is Russian, and the Kuril Islands (in Tokyo they are called the northern territories) Japanese.

The readers of the portal expressed their thoughts on this in the comments. One of the citizens of the Land of the Rising Sun believes that Tokyo should not "wag its tail" in front of Moscow in order to cheer it up.

Another was even more categorical. He told how he was terrified that the head of the Japanese government was Hatoyama:

I want to tell him to shut up, because anti-Japanese forces make the most of such former prime ministers.

Another reader believes that the recognition of Crimea by Russia is completely unacceptable, because it will spoil Japan's relations with Western countries.

Our country is part of the Western capitalist camp that respects human rights and freedom. Turning the peninsula into an object of bargaining will lead to a deterioration in relations with NATO countries.

- he considers.

At the same time, many ordinary Japanese openly say that Russia will not give up the South Kuriles, and the government in Tokyo is using this issue for political self-promotion.

          And Alaska, and everything in the world, only from your confession, well, nothing is decided, from the word at all. To begin with, admit that you are not worried about the islands, but that you are carrying out the task of the owners, no matter how you scratch them out. They were going to create a naval base in the Crimea, but it didn't work out, and it won't work in the Kuril Islands either.

    The idea is doomed to fail. Russia will never give up the Kuril Islands, because it will be such a loss of face that no rating and no guards will help a person in this case. And the West will never recognize Crimea - not only for the same reason (a Western politician of any rank who has made a confession will instantly become a political corpse), but also because they remember too well the results of the policy of appeasement. And since then they have firmly decided: never to allow territorial acquisitions.

    Japanese recognition, like their Peace Treaty, can be an act of goodwill, bargaining is not appropriate, unless of course the owner allows it. Hokaido Island has the lowest population density in Japan; they themselves do not strive to live in the northern regions. Popping about the Kuril Islands is nothing more than a political ritual.

      Popping about the Kuril Islands is nothing more than a political ritual.
      Rather, work for the benefit of its master, the United States. In other words, the problem of the South Kuriles has not only a political, not only economic, but also a military dimension, their part is uninhabited and is a rocky part of the land in the endless ocean.
      But the islands to which Japan claims the rights - Iturup, Kunashir, Shikotan and Habomai - their territorial location allows Russia to consider the Sea of ​​Okhotsk as its internal waters. This regime is governed by the 1982 UN Convention on the Law of the Sea, according to which 12 nautical miles from the coast are exclusively the territorial waters of the state that is washed by the seas and oceans. The chain of the Kuril Islands, due to their close location (not exceeding 24 nautical miles), closes the line of the maritime boundary in such a way that there is not a single loophole in it.
      For the United States, it is precisely the "loophole" in the Sea of ​​Okhotsk that is needed, thus clogging the Pacific Fleet at its bases.
      So conversations with Japan, and even more so bargaining should not be, this is SECURITY OF RUSSIA.

The disastrous Olympics in Japan are on the way, Fukushima fills the entire Pacific Ocean, the Japanese marry mechanical dolls, etc. And give them all the Kuril Islands? It is clear that the Americans are pressing, depriving the Japanese of an independent domestic and foreign policy, it is difficult to be an occupied country. But the Kuril Islands are Russian soil, do the Japanese want to start a war over territory? Maybe it's time to calm down, think about the soul?

    ... The ex-prime minister of Japan proposed to recognize Crimea as Russian "in exchange" for the recognition of the Kuril Islands as "Japanese
    “You’re wrong, Uncle Fedor, eat a sandwich. You hold it up with the sausage, but you have to put the sausage on your tongue, it will be tastier this way. ”(C). The prime minister addressed the wrong ex-Japs. He had to offer Ukraine to recognize Crimea as Ukrainian in exchange for Ukraine's recognition of the Kuril Islands as Japanese. Then his proposal would acquire a logically meaningless completeness. laughing

    All that characters with the prefix "ex" talk about is just the chatter of someone whose opinion does not matter. They even pay extra for journalists to be asked and published somewhere. Like our Damantsev - scribbling something, some kind of garbage, and everyone doesn't care.

    Or maybe this: Russia recognizes Japanese sovereignty over the Senkaku Islands, and Japan recognizes Russian sovereignty over the Kuriles? To the heap, you can even recognize Japanese sovereignty over Formosa. tongue

    Who will allow you, narrow-film people, to make such a confession? With the Kuriles or without the Kuriles - without a team from the United States, you can't even kick it.

    Yeah, but about Japanese pride a la samurai, loyalty to tradition, and the like, so much has been said and shown, but in fact the country under occupation as it was and remained, the Japanese point-blank "do not remember" who threw nuclear hotels to them, the Japanese prime minister acts with looking back to Washington, but at the same time they demand from R. F. the islands, and they can't smear the back with gooseberry jam ???

    For a start, you can practice on cats. Let them recognize the Aleutian Islands as ours, and we, in return, recognize Hawaii as Japanese. And then, how will it go recourse

    It is necessary to recognize Okinawa and the Fiji Islands as primordially Ukrainian territory. After the awesomeness, the debate in the UN will begin

    well that's a great idea!
    in this case, Japan will have to become part of the Russian Federation!
    it's cool, then Alaska itself will hold a referendum and ask for "home"

    The Japanese offer to give something that does not belong to them in exchange for a real gift.
