A STUDY OF JAPAN-USSR RELATONS IN THE 1920s NORTHEAST ASIA

1.日本准备与远东共和国谈判，以维护东北亚的权益。但在大连会议和长春会议上，日本未能与共和国达成协议。日本失败的原因是高估了共和国脱离苏联的独立，日本的政策决策总是滞后于形势。日军从符拉迪沃斯托克撤军后，俄罗斯远东在东北亚并不孤单。这些地区是日俄林渔业特许权谈判的阶段，也是满洲粮食出口的窗口。符拉迪沃斯托克的日本居民协会继续存在，日本报纸《弗拉迪沃日本报》也出版到1931年。这一阶段标志着日苏关系的稳定。1929年苏联与中国地方政府在中国东部铁路管理问题上的冲突，使东北亚局势变得不稳定。但是，北京的中国中央政府打算利用这次对抗来推动中国的统一。北京的水壶研究所收藏在中国的剪报是一份珍贵的史料，显示了日本许多机构和组织对东北亚的兴趣。1931年的满洲里事变打破了东北亚的平衡，使这一地区一下子变得不稳定。

1. Japan was going to negotiate with the Far Eastern Republic to maintain rights and interests in Northeastern Asia. But Japan was not able to reach the agreement with the Republic in the Dallien Conference and the Changchun Conference. The cause of Japanese failure was to have overestimated the independence of the Republic from the Soviet Russia, and Japanese policy decision was always late from the situation.2. After withdrawal of troops of the Japanese armed forces from Vladivostok, Russian Far East did not stand alone in Northeastern Asia. These areas were stages of negotiations for the forest and fishery concessions between Japan and Russia, and also were a window of the grain export from Manchuria. The Society of Japanese residents in Vladivostok continued and a Japanese newspaper Vladivo Nippo was also published until 1931. It was the stage which symbolized that the relations of Japan and the Soviet Union were stable.3. The conflicts between Soviet Union and Chinese Local Government over the management of the Chinese Eastern Railway in 1929 did the Northeastern Asian situation to an unstable. But, the Chinese Central Government in Peking was going to push forward Chinese unification using this confrontation.4. The Suetsugu-Collection - newspaper clipping which a Suetsugu Research Institute in Peking collected in China - is valuable historical materials to show the interest of Japanese many apparatus and organizations to Northeast Asia.5. The Manchurian Incident in 1931 tore Northeast Asian equilibrium and made this area an unstable at one stroke.
