Putin is more capable, but he is still a more honest person. Fan Wubing considered the words and said to Shen Ying.

He clearly makes sense to say this. In fact, because Putin's leadership is relatively sudden, even Russia's understanding of him is seriously insufficient, let alone other countries.

Most people now know Putin, just know that this new Russian manager is not only young and capable, but also a former KGB member who is proficient in judo and can fly fighters. Other than that, he really knows very little.

But I don’t understand. As the greatest heir to the legacy of the Soviet superpower, Russia’s every move will attract the attention of all countries in the world. It is the light Russian president this year who has been a bodyguard.

In terms of diplomacy, Putin tried to restore Russia’s status as a superpower in the Soviet era. He has repeatedly stated publicly that the ideal world order should be a fair and democratic world order, which can guarantee the safety and wealth of all people, not a minority. , And stated that Russia advocates a democratic and multi-polar world order, and supports the consolidation of the international legal system.

At the same time, Russia under Putin's leadership has also established strategic partnerships with Western countries such as the European Union and the United States, and will become a member of the Group of Eight. He also pays close attention to Asian affairs, especially the developments of China and India.

However, the diplomatic relations between Russia and the Baltic countries have been in a relatively tense state, and Estonia's criticism of Russia has also further ossified the diplomatic relations between the two countries. It is worth noting that Putin's father was almost killed in Estonia during a blasting mission in World War II. Some people believe that this is one reason for Putin's indifferent attitude towards Estonia.

Whether it is threatening to fight an information war with Estonia, threatening to cut off the supply of resources in Lithuania, or embargoing Georgian wine and Polish meat resources, all of this strongly proves that Putin is ready to extend Russia's influence to the former Soviet Union countries, and completely Regardless of the feelings of these countries.

At the same time, it became clear that instead of seeing Western countries as partners in trade and politics, he was more inclined to regard them as thorns in his eyes with the old Cold War mentality.

As for King Korea, Russia was indifferent to it after the founding of the country and turned to support South Korea. But since Putin took office, he has not only visited North Korea many times, but also resolved the potential war crisis between North Korea and South Korea.

In addition, Putin has expressed his attitude towards North Korea and is willing to help North Korea alleviate its economic problems.

In January of this year, as soon as Putin took office as President of Russia, he called Japanese Prime Minister Yoshiro Mori, hoping that the two sides would hold talks. At this time, Yoshiro Mori, who was in a political crisis due to Fan Wu's disease, agreed on the spot, hoping to rely on the talks to resolve the territorial issues between the two countries in order to obtain political capital and support himself to continue to stay in the prime minister's position for a while.

However, Putin was resolute about this and directly rejected Yoshiro Mori's request to implement Kawana's proposal. Instead, he proposed to pretend to be an intermediary treaty. Of course, his request was also rejected by Yoshiro Mori.

Some changes have also taken place in the relations between China and Russia. Both Russia and China feel the importance of each other’s anti-American stance. Relations between Russia have improved rapidly, and border trade transactions have also grown so much that a while ago there were rumors that Chinese businessmen purchased Russian Su-Knife fighters, and the Russian side did not publicly refute the matter, which made the media. The former have been suspicious, and it is not clear to what extent the strategic cooperation relationship between China and Russia has reached.

"In fact, the cooperation between China and Russia is far from being as close as outsiders thought." Fan Wubing said to Shen Ying. "Because Putin is unpredictable and shows no trace, the senior management is also a bit confused about him. Therefore, although the contacts between the two sides have gradually increased, they have not achieved strategic cooperation and mutual trust on certain major issues."

"Then what do you think of him?" Shen Ying asked.

"I can't see him, but this person is a pragmatist. As long as the cooperation between our two sides is effective and beneficial to the development of Russia, he cannot object." Fan Wuyao replied, "So, this Once he invited us to Moscow, I think we should go to see it, and it is very likely that there will be some opportunities for cooperation."

"What useful things can he get from you?" Shen Ying was a little puzzled.

In fact, in terms of technical capabilities and resources, Russia is relatively strong. Even if the country’s economy was collapsed by the Soviet Union’s military forces, after shock therapy, there are signs of recovery. It is believed that a few years later. , Russia will become another huge empire across Eurasia.

Therefore, Shen Ying felt that Fan Wuyi could not play a very important role in Russia, or he had discussed with the Russians to exploit oil and natural gas resources in Siberia, but now, Russia’s local oil tycoons are already there. Naturally, he would not agree with Fan Wubing’s looting of strategic resources in Russia for profit. . . . . .

"In fact, Russia’s biggest concern right now is the issue of the four northern islands. It’s just that Putin has just recently taken office, and he is not yet willing to show a too strong stance on this issue. The collapse of the Japanese cabinet just helped him. Avoiding this rather embarrassing question, he probably hopes to use some more private channels to alleviate Russia's possible deterioration in relations with Japan due to the four northern islands." Fan Wuyao replied after thinking about it. .

"Do you have the ability to worsen the relations between Russia and Japan?" Shen Ying asked in surprise.

"No." Fan Wuyao replied bluntly, and then he said, "But I have a way to make Japan's political situation continue to deteriorate."

Japan is not a good neighbor by nature. In the west, it has a territorial dispute with South Korea on Takedo (Dokdo); in the south, it also wants to take China’s Diaoyu Islands as its own; and in the north, it is included in the territory of Russia. The four northern islands (the Soviets called them the Southern Thousand Pages Islands) even more so they couldn’t let go.

Of course, it is difficult to spit out the meat that enters Russia's mouth. For Japan, only the endless Pacific Ocean in the east is peaceful, because there is only the ocean, and there is no territorial dispute.

However, compared with Japan's unreasonable and unreasonable handling of the Diaoyu Islands issue, its experience with the four northern islands can only be described as bitterness and enmity. After Japan surrendered in 1945, with the consent of the United States, Britain and other countries, the Soviet army occupied the four northern islands. After that, the Japanese residents there were forced to move out. As a result, every year many Japanese who have traveled to foreign land return to their hometowns to place their grief in front of their ancestral graves.

In the international society after World War II, because the Japanese government has always followed the United States, the Soviet Union is naturally indifferent to it. Although both parties are working hard to improve relations, it is very strange that the two big countries have negotiated for more than 50 years, but have not yet signed a peace treaty. Among them, the main obstacle is that the two sides are not willing to give up on the four northern islands. ownership.

In terms of strategic space, because if the four northern islands were given to Japanese devils, Russia’s only non-freezing port of sea cucumber in the Far East would be under the surveillance of the United States and Japan, and Russia’s nuclear strategic space would be suppressed.

On the contrary, if the four northern islands have been occupied by Russia, then Japan must be ready to respond to threats from the north. Coupled with the containment of China and South Korea, Japan’s geostrategy will be in a very unfavorable position. There will be too much threat, and the deterrence of the Russian strategic missile and nuclear submarine on the United States has also been strengthened.

Under these conditions, it is obviously impossible for Putin to promise to return the four northern islands.

"Actually, when did the food in the stomach of Beisuo star vomit it out?" Fan Wubing said to Shen Ying. At the beginning, Lenin also said that he would return the territories invaded and occupied China, but he turned his face in Stalin's hands and refused to admit it. , And also wiped out all the evidence of Lenin’s words. This was still the method of adding comrades to the so-called friends at the time. As for Japan, which itself had two experiences in the Russo-Japanese War~lightnovelpub.net~they It would be so generous and impossible! "

When the Soviet Union disintegrated, Russia, as the successor of the superpower, undisputedly inherited the four northern islands, a strategic point leading to the Pacific. Of course, there were also the obsessions of the Japanese prime ministers to these four islands.

Over the years, Russia can be said to have been leaking even night rains. Not only has its military power been gradually weakened, but its economic development has also been very unsatisfactory. In the case of an urgent need for foreign investment, Russia has been seeking to improve its relationship with Japan, an old neighbor and wealthy man. Therefore, out of the consideration of developing the eastern economy, Russia reluctantly parted with love this year. First, the foreign minister announced that it might consider whether the feasibility of returning the four northern islands exists, and then Putin said that Japan-Russia relations should be strengthened and developed together.

Japan’s response was beyond Russia’s expectations. The first thing they mentioned was not cooperation, but to see that the four northern islands have indeed returned to Japan. It can be said that it is typical to not see rabbits and scatter eagles, but how can Russia spit out the meat in its mouth? ? Putin is nothing more than playing with political means. Once it comes to territorial issues, no one dares to make mistakes.

"Putin still has an idea, to drag the word tactics, but the Japanese are not stupid. If you don't give me the four northern islands, I won't cooperate with you. This is their position." Fan Wuyao said, "But now Putin sees An alternative solution was to improve Russia’s economy by strengthening exchanges with Chinese private capital. At least in this way, there is no need to consider Japan’s economic assistance for the time being. Therefore, he still cares about my money."
