Japan-Russia relations and north-east Asian security
Article Abstract:
Deep mutual suspicion underlies Japan-Russia relations giving rise to pressing concerns of security over north-east Asia. Central to this mistrust is the territorial row over the Kuril Islands. This has stalled all efforts at improving political and economic ties. Unstable political conditions in both countries rule out even marginal improvement in bilateral relations. However, the need to address emerging security issues such as the containment of a potentially hegemonic China, requires multilateral cooperation that would ensure the political and economic transformation of Russia.
