Greetings,

Recently the 'Empire of Japan' contacted us through our Emergency Sale Form requesting to know if they may purchase the Kuril Islands and Sakhalin south of the 50th parallel
Link: https://modernnations.com/threads/ru-emergency-sale.17543/page-2#post-71831
So, we went ahead and messaged them to see how serious they were about the purchase, and discovered how serious they were as well as something else that may pertain to you given the language used.
Our terms for a sale were $30 billion as a down payment, followed by gradual payments each tax period at a fixed rate for $35 billion for a total price tag of $65 billion.
Some requirements being that Russian Citizens residing there be given a choice of duel citizenship, Japanese citizenship, or be compensated for having to resettle.
Additionally a 50 year agreement to allow us to move civilian, government, and military assets over land, sea, and air of the purchased territories. This being with the ability to purchase out of the agreement in 50 years for $10 billion.
As well as an agreement on the land being used for 'colonization' and development with stated figures for population density and growth.
Finally we asked for them to consider the following:
The establishment and reaffirmation of diplomatic missions and ties.
The establishment and reaffirmation of trade and commerce.
Discussion of foreign and internal policies as well as goal pertaining to those.
Establishment of non aggression and mutual assistance pacts.
The possibility of forming a intergovernmental military alliance in light of recent incidents

With us having said what we requested, I shall now inform you about what I figure you might find interesting.
"We are looking at acquiring these pieces of land that were stolen from us at the end of the war." - Kōji Omi
"It is our divine destiny to colonise the areas north of Honshu, including Hokkaido, Sakhalin and the Kuril Islands." - Kōji Omi
"We plan on massively colonising this area, incentivising Japanese to move in." - Kōji Omi
" there is so much land in the Russian Far East which is underutilised and can be used by Asian countries to develop " - Kōji Omi

This implies things that may be worrying for the Republic of Korea considering the history between Japan and Korea. Firstly, the Japanese seem to have reawakened their colonial and imperial ambitions. Having returned to the form of government from before the second world war. They also speak of devine destiny, another pre world war two rhetoric. These notions when mixed in with te idea that land was stolen from them at the end of the war leads me to believe they may have ambitions to reclaim former subjects such as Korea at some point.

With this in mind, I believe it is only fair that we make the same offer to you. We are willing to sell the lands that Japan has requested to the Republic of Korea.

His Excellency President Yeltsin,


Please let me start by saying thank you to bringing this to our attention. The diseases of Japanese imperialism has once again sprung from the decaying vines of a dying Emperor and his cohort of fanatical genocidal offsprings. We have been monitoring the Japanese domestic situation for sometime when the Japanese pro-imperialist movement began gain traction. We are not surprised that Prime Minister Koizumi and his imperialists confidants would try and use money to buy the islands, much less would we be unsurprised that they would use military force to seize the territory of other states.

I have forwarded the contents of email to our national defense ministry, office of national security, and relevant agencies and departments, we will deliberate internally over Japan's statements and actions. We appreciate your willingness to share this information with us. Japan's colonial ambitions should they seek to turn this into action will not end with these Russians islands, eventually, they will turn their attention to Vladivostok and the Russian Far East, Chinese Manchuria, and the Korean people. Wether they do this through 'attempted cooperation of Asian states' or through their brutal military entities, is still unknown. Japan's colonial atrocities, rape, plunder, and cultural genocide of the Korean people is not forgotten, and the Korean Government will take all measures deemed appropriate to the protect the integrity of our republic, people, and the Korean Peninsula. Their perverted notion of stolen is only made worse by their blinded vision of militarism and fantasization of a bygone era of strength and power. While we have no intention to provoke Japan, we will conduct all actions necessary to defend the integrity of Korea, wether or not Japan likes it or not. The language of the Japanese officials is concerning, and we will take this into deep consideration.

The Japanese government has yet to contact the Korean Government, however, given your analysis and interactions, we can only now see why. We will continue to monitor the situation here, if we find any intelligence or information of use, please be assured we will share it our earliest convenience to you. While we thank you for the offer, the Republic of Korea has no intention of taking the territory belonging to the Russian Federation, and we hope that you will continue to share information like this with us. Have the Japanese responded to your terms, or are they still deliberating?

Signed with sincerity,
Baek Jeonghee
Minister of Foreign Affairs,
Republic of Korea
