영문 초록

Russian foreign policy was linked to the West when Russia just accepted market economy as a new born country. But Russia changed the policy because he concluded that Western economic aid didn't meet his expectation, it caused Russian economic crisis, the crisis increased public unrest, racial dispute within Russia. Therefore, Russia had emphasized regaining his lost big external power abroad, especially in former Soviet area, since the end of 1992. At the same time, Russia also had forwarded equal foreign policy between the West and the East as a means of the regaining his lost power. Ex-President Yeltsin announced at the 1st Asian-Pacific ministerial meeting held in Moscow that Russia was an Eurasian country and he would treat this area, as well as CIS countries, as an important area when he made Russian foreign policy and showed his concern about Asia-Pacific. Russia wants to keep the same power as Soviet Union had kept before, organizing new multilateral order in this area. For that reason, Russia tried to hold American power in Asian-Pacific countries, deter China and Japan from competing for gaining hegemony in Asia, be a main actor on peace-making in Korean Peninsula, enter in Asian-Pacific economic zone, enlarge cooperations with boarder countries for trust-building and arms-control and prepare new mechanism for multilateral new international order and so forth. The aims of the foreign policy of the Putin administration towards Japan also contain such broad objectives as well as special bilateral relation between Russia and Japan. Russian-Japanese relations were hostile traditionally but Soviet Union began to access to Japan in order to get economic interest since 1960s. Ex-President Gorbachev emphasized the importance of the better relations with Japan in 1980s. Under Yeltsin administration, however, Russia tried to treat the territorial problem, southern Kuril islands conflict at the same time involving economic matter, it gave rise to complications which lasted until 1996 between the two countries. After Yevgeny Primakov and later Igor Ivanov became Russian Foreign Ministers and especially after President Vladimir Putin took power, the conflict started to solve. President Yeltsin announced Russia would not oppose if Japan became a permanent member of the UN Security Council, and the Japanese Prime minister Hashimoto supported Yeltsin at Russian President election in 1996. These gestures made the two countries come close quickly President Putin succeeded to leading to the reconciled mood and adopting New Foreign Policy. When we refer the New policy, Putin's foreign policy towards Japan is summarized as follows: (1) building creative companionship, (2) enlarging cooperations in economy and trade, (3) exploring ways toward solving Southern Kuril islands conflict, (4) enlarging cooperations with Japan for foreign and security policies. Putin administration seek to improvement of the relationship with Japan for russian security and economic interest. The two countries keep going to be 'creative companions' actually. But the effort will not be successful without settling their territorial problem.
