Since Shinzo Abe had to step down as prime minister due to physical reasons, Yoshihide Suga has become the new prime minister of Japan. Many people believe that Yoshihide Suga will faithfully continue to implement Abe’s policies because the outside world believes Yoshihide Suga is Abe’s heir. At present, Yoshihide Suga is still following this goal according to the path set during Abe’s reign, but he also proposed some new goals, such as the issue of the four northern islands, hoping to recover as soon as possible, and then with Russia Sign a peace agreement.
During Shinzo Abe’s administration, Abe has always been very keen to solve the problem of the four northern islands. In decades, this goal has never changed. In the hearts of the Japanese, the four northern islands have always been Japan's territory. Because of the defeat in the war, they were forced to return to the Soviet Union and eventually fell into the hands of Russia. During the Soviet period, Japan failed to win the four northern islands. After the disintegration of the Soviet Union in 1991, Russia inherited jurisdiction over the four northern islands. For a long time afterwards, the Japanese government hoped to recover the four northern islands. This is not only because the four northern islands are of important political, economic and military value, but also because the recovery of the four northern islands also means Japan's territorial integrity. However, it is not an easy task to recover the four northern islands from Russia. Abe has visited Russia many times to discuss the recovery of the islands. However, Russia and Japan still have huge differences on the issue of the four northern islands. Even the Abe government wants to use force to force Russia to return, but this hope is not very high.
Once Japan has this idea, Russia will send the Figure 95 strategic bomber to Japan to warn Japan not to provoke a war easily, otherwise Russia will launch a large-scale bloody war. On the issue of the four northern islands, Russia has always maintained a very strong attitude. Russia believes that the four northern islands are an important guarantee for the security of the Russian Far East. And it can also protect Russia's national security. Russia claims that there is no extra inch of territory, especially now that there are a large number of American troops stationed on Japan's territory, and Russia cannot return the four northern islands.
Yoshihide Suga tried to attack the four northern islands after he came to power, but was hit back by missiles mounted by Russian bombers. Yoshihide Suga was forced to immediately ask the US military for help. Russia has also conducted large-scale military exercises in the waters near Japan, hoping that Japan can abandon this goal. There was a situation where Japanese fishing boats were directly destroyed by Russian patrol ships. At that time, the Japanese fishing boats accidentally entered the waters of the four northern islands and were immediately attacked. It seems that the Russian army is definitely not joking. Now that Russia has strengthened the defense of the four northern islands, it is still difficult for Japan to capture the four islands, and Russia is still a nuclear-weapon country. Once a full-scale conflict breaks out, Japan may become the only country hit by the nuclear weapons of the United States and Russia.
Japan’s recovery of the four northern islands is not without chance. Japan and Russia are negotiating on the four northern islands. Putin said that the four northern islands can be returned, provided that all the US troops stationed in Japan withdraw. This made Japan quite embarrassed and eventually Japan lost this time. opportunity. It can be seen that under the current conditions, it is very difficult for Japan to reclaim the four northern islands in the short term. Yoshihide Suga still needs to reflect on his foreign policy, create a positive attitude, and obtain a turning point.
