Medvedev earlier visited the country after the island.

[World Wide Web reports reporter Zhang Xiaofang] Hong Kong Review of Social dated on the 17th, said the territorial dispute between Japan and Russia has again been a turmoil. July 3, Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev boarded the South Kuril Islands (Japan said that the four northern islands) in the country after the island. The landing Medvedev following the previous year as president for the first time landing second on the island. Medvedev’s second landing in Germany and Japan and the Fang Duimei intense behavioral response, called the “brutal acts” inexcusable, Kenichiro Sasae, the Japanese Foreign Ministry Affairs Officer specially summoned the Russian ambassador to Japan, Alfonso Naxiyefu to protest. The article said that Japan has no effective measure to counter Russia’s, there are indications that the four northern islands are from Japan lopsided.

article said that the violent reaction of Japan, the Russian response is dealt with gently. Russia, said Russia’s sovereignty over the South Kuril Islands is no doubt that the Russian leadership to the work of inspection, which does not depend on the reaction of the Government of Japan. The Russian side to this seemingly casual, casual way that self-confidence and emboldened in the four islands to Japan’s fierce reaction contempt and disdain.

bilateral mentality on this issue is not, has been repeatedly reflected. Throughout In recent years Russian-Japanese territorial game, you can find a prominent feature, that is, Russia is obvious offensive, constantly dishing out ruthless strokes to stimulate the Japanese, did not worry about the latter will make the overdone reaction. In Japan, however, in addition to diplomatic protests, to have no strong counter-initiatives. Japanese fishermen from a few years ago the Russian Border Troops shot series of the South Kuril Islands to the Russian leaders of the past two years, can fully prove this point.

article points out that such a situation is determined by the two different strategic situation. Japan did not leveraging Russia to compel him to leverage the convergence.

Without U.S. backing, Japan, which lost its rivalry with Russia emboldened.

Japan occupy a position of initiative is only when dealing with Russia economic and trade cooperation. Since the collapse of the Soviet Union, Russia has long suffered the economic predicament, very eager for investment from Japan. But even on this issue, with the restoration of Russia’s economic strength, its demand in Japan is also great as they used to, but on this issue, Japan has asked the Russian side – it is also very eager to energy from Russia . This more than offset by Japan and Russia when dealing with the dominant position.
