A signal from Russia, I'm afraid it indicates that the "four northern islands" are ushering in the finale? Japan jumped to the ground in a hurry and changed its words to aim at Putin, did it want to declare war? The Japanese people have a bad premonition, I'm afraid this is going to be a big game!
As everyone knows, Japan has been thinking about the South Kuril Islands, which are located between the Kuril Islands of Russia and Hokkaido of Japan, for a long time, and to this day they have been arguing with Russia endlessly, and they also call them the "Four Northern Islands". However, a recent signal from Russia may indicate that the "four northern islands" that Japan has been thinking about will usher in a finale.
Let's start by talking about what happened. According to the report, not long ago, Russian Deputy Prime Minister and ** Plenipotentiary Representative in the Far East Federal District Trutnev said in an interview that the Kuril Islands have become an important part of the Russian Far East development strategy, and Russia has launched 29 development projects and formulated a series of relevant preferential policies to attract foreign investors to participate. Among them, about 23 Chinese companies have already shown interest to the Russian side and put forward proposals for development. And these investors may invest another 4 trillion rubles in the development of the Far East by 2030.
Obviously, Russia's current situation is no longer as urgent as it was at the beginning of the Russian-Ukrainian war, on the contrary, it even has the energy to free up its hands to engage in the development and construction of the Far East. As for the joint development of the Kuril Islands by Chinese enterprises, in my opinion, there may be two considerations. First, China is the world's second largest economy, and if China participates in Russia's development projects, it will certainly be profitable in terms of economic support. Second, it is based on geopolitical considerations. As we mentioned earlier, the South Kuril Islands belong to the disputed sovereignty between Japan and Russia, and if China participates in the development and construction of the region, it will be equivalent to standing on Russia's side to a certain extent, which will be a very clear political position.
Of course, these factors aside, the news that China and Russia are preparing to develop and build the South Kuril Islands alone may be a signal that the "four northern islands" are ushering in the end in the eyes of Japan. After all, Japan is still clamoring to recapture these islands, so why is Russia planning future development projects with China. Isn't this a clear reminder to Japan that the so-called territorial dispute is gone, and Japan should do whatever it wants? In this regard, the Tokyo authorities must have jumped to their feet in a hurry and immediately turned the table up. According to the report, Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida recently said in his policy speech in the Diet that Japan is willing to sign a peace treaty with Russia after resolving the territorial dispute over the "four northern islands". And Fumio Kishida also said that in the context of the events in Ukraine, Japan will continue to resolutely promote sanctions against Russia and continue to support Ukraine together with the international community.
From this point of view, we have to say that Japan is really a dead duck wearing a steel helmet with an iron head and a hard mouth. Originally, Japan should have been glad that Russia had not launched a counterattack so far, but now it jumped to its feet first, directly facing the Russian card, shouting that if it wants to sign a peace agreement, it must return the "four northern islands". He even emphasized that he would continue to support Ukraine and promote sanctions against Russia, what is this not a naked "declaration of war"? Having said that, personally, I do admire Japan's "courage", after all, there is such an obvious gap in the strength of Japan and Russia, and to be precise, the two countries are still in a state of war without signing a peace agreement, if Russia launches an attack at this time, I believe that Japan has no power to fight back. Perhaps it is precisely for this reason that the Japanese people began to have a bad premonition for Fumio Kishida's "courage". After all, in their opinion, the Tokyo authorities undoubtedly want to play big, target Putin, and directly "declare war". But the end of this may be that when the "four northern islands" usher in the finale, Japan may have another mushroom cloud.
