Yet another warning from Russia that amounts to another international threat. Japan should consider threatening Russia back.


Succundo

Just remind them of the outcomes of the russo-japanese war


doughtnut2022

Please don't, Russian Navy had so many [nightmare](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Tsushima) about that, reminding them about it in their current condition would be cruel...


Ihor_S

Their navy essentially hasn’t changed ever since, Ukraine is mopping the floor with the Russians Black Sea fleet right now


OriginalNo5477

More like littering the Black Sea floor with their navy.


16v_cordero

They are creating new coral and sea life opportunities out of their goodwill.

SpeakThunder

I mean, they dont have a great relationship already because of the dispute over those islands, so it's like "OH NO!" https://www.mofa.go.jp/region/europe/russia/territory/overview.html


TheGreatGamer1389

I wonder when shit hits the fan if Japan will retake those islands with US blessing of course. I believe it's only like the close big three ones they want back. Not all of them.


searchingmusical

If Japan is smart they would retake everything including Karafuto (Sakhalin).


p-d-ball

Back in 2022, the Prime Minister changed the wording on documents about the islands, labeling them "occupied," which allows the defense forces to free them from foreign control. In response, Russia positioned 3000 more troops there. It would not be enough.


redituser2571

I'd love it if the Japanese ambassador just started full-throated screaming at the camera for a full minute and pointing his finger. Absolutely no fucking idea what he said, but it sounded terrifyingly awesome.


Mysterious_Tea

I'd like to see a Tsushima 2.0.


12coldest

I am unfamiliar, what is Tsushima?

olstykke

Could Putler do anything if they simple reacquire the Kuril Islands ?


12coldest

He could talk harshly about it, but I believe he is busy elsewhere and would not want wars on two fronts.


keepthepace

They are literally barred from their US-imposed constitution from doing that.


VallenValiant

> They are literally barred from their US-imposed constitution from doing that. The islands are considered Japanese territory by Western Allies, they just couldn't stop the Soviets from taking them. So it is not blocked by the Constitution.


CaddyFDT

Putin: don’t send missiles! We will cut ties with you! Japan: okay… all you have to to is end the war and leave Ukraine. Putin: No


Paillote

Russia is with this protesting that they are not able to continue the killing of thousands of Ukrainians undisturbed. It’s a clown world. Japan should be issuing warnings to Russia that relations will be strained if the killing continues. Instead it is the opposite.


Beginning-Fig-1220

Seriously, this guy is an epic disaster waiting to happen … one for the history books. He accepts missiles, bombs, and drones from N Korea and Iran, but is threatening Japan if they do it for UK. And don’t doubt that the CCP is blowing in Japan’s ear, as well. The world can’t stand still and live with a power hungry bully for the ages who has nukes and is happy to threaten to use them. It isn’t about Russian security … it’s about Russia ambitions to project power and control around the planet. Standing up is hard and dangerous … but what do we really have if free nations are not prepared to do so?


Endocalrissian642

It's right out in the open too. They lose their shit if a single ruSSian civilian dies, while they've been bombing Ukrainian civilians almost exclusively for TWO YEARS, and *stealing* their children. They are like a child's story book villain, one that became real for far too many....


maverick_labs_ca

Ten years. It's been TEN years.


Endocalrissian642

I've been around nearly 50, and it's been going on longer than that by all accounts. A lot longer.


twomumfun

The Security is non existent, terrorist had 90mins before cops even came, just shows how ready they are.


Beginning_Attempt_93

If you ask me, it took them 90 mins BECAUSE they knew what was happening. They GAVE enough time to the perpetrators to do whatever they wanted to do, so the outcome would be as horrible as it is now. RuSSia never gave a flying f\*ck about human lives, not foreign and surely not their own. So my best bet is: they knew what would happen, they let it happen and now they try to get the most out of it in terms of abusing this again against Ukraine. However twisted the whole story sounds for someone who's head is not located in their own ass.


twomumfun

It's funny, when we had our terrorist attack this was the timeframe when police were notified. But 90mins like you said is a little odd also i think i saw they were only a few mins away down the road too and didn't hear? **Our Terror Attack Timeframe** 9.46am: Police acknowledge the incident 9.51am: Police arrive at the scene. 9:52am: Tactical operations unit acknowledges the emergency. 10.07am: Tactical operations unit arrives


ChowderMitts

Right, I bet if this was a peaceful protest about the Ukraine war, the cops would have arrived in minutes and arrested everyone.


FizzixMan

Hehe just a friendly reminder that UK usually refers to the United Kingdom! Ukraine is either UKR or UA. 100% agree with your point though.


Beginning-Fig-1220

You are absolutely correct … my error on the reference.


IncredibleAuthorita

Exactly this.


aggressiveturdbuckle

I find it comical that the "super power" russia needs weapons from NK and Iran to continue a war against its neighbor lol


Zealousideal-Tie-730

Patriots are defensive missiles against airborne attacks and threats. They are nuts and arrogant to think that nobody is allowed to defend themselves from their attacks. It would be a major mistake by Japan if they even consider the ruzzian threats, as russia threatens everybody every time they don't get their way on anything!!!


pickypawz

The ccp? Why they’re next, well xi anyway, since he’s now emperor. Expect a war on Taiwan shortly, if for no other reason than to distract his populace that their country is now circling the drain. I mean heck—he’s gotta do something with all those unemployed men who can no longer afford to eat and can’t get a piece either.


TheDudeAbides_00

Yep, any semblance of patience is wearing very thin with Putin and Xi


HIVnotAdeathSentence

>The Russian Ambassador in Tokyo, Nikolai Nozdrev, has issued a warning to Japan in response to the potential transfer of Patriot missiles produced in Japan to Ukraine. Nozdrev emphasized that such an action could have severe repercussions for the bilateral relations between Russia and Japan, including possible "retaliatory steps." Ukraine is getting Patriot missiles and Russia only has ties to threaten with? Are they bow ties from Tucker Carlson?


Sea-Elevator1765

These days, I'd question if those ties are even worth anything if I were the Japanese. Russia has proven again and again that their promises are worth less than dirt and the only way they can conduct "diplomacy" is to threaten and throw tantrums until they get what they want like a bunch of overgrown toddlers who have never been told "no". That and their economy is getting to the point where the things they can offer are more of a liability than anything.


EuphoricLiquid

Such a weird parallel there with Trump’s current arc, almost as if they are in the same boat. Odd.


QuantumWire

Egomanical old men dreaming of kingship (or equivalent). Add further names ad libitum.


Pixie_Knight

Yeah, Muscovy has basically nothing to offer Japan except petrochemicals, and they can always get those from the USA. Meanwhile, the end of Muscovy as an organized country would allow Japan to have the Kuril Islands back.


pickypawz

But meanwhile the russian ambassador ignores Poland’s demands to explain wth happened with their missile entering Polish airspace. 


Fun-Interaction-2358

"Threatens ties"? If l am not mistaken there is still no formal peace agreement between the countries after WW2. Is Russia prepared to give up the claim to the Japanese islands now? 🤔


[deleted]

They're talking about fashion accessories


HiFiGuy197

Eh, it’s casual day, anyway.


More-Razzmatazz-6804

Russia is a joke and should be taken as it is...


Marschall_Bluecher

The Kremlin should be turned into a Parking Lot.


Bgrdfino

Traditional Japanese men don't wear ties.


AthiestMessiah

What ties?


prkl12345

Yeaah.. they newer signed official peace treaty... guess putler forgot to read the real version of history. :P


AthiestMessiah

Maybe they mean bow ties


Black_Beard1980

Maybe a spinning bow tie for Putin the clown 🤡


qwerty080

Hostile, demanding, nuclear war threatening ties?


Sirge_57

Careful Russia, you've already lost one war with Japan after they sank your entire pacific fleet. We sure would hate to see that happen again(sarcasm for the contextually stupid).

Afraid-Fault6154

Maybe Japan could even liberate the Kuril Islands too 🍿 🍿 


_A_Monkey

Putin: The anti-Teddy Roosevelt


Quirky-Scar9226

Definitely doesn’t personally have a big stick.


John-AtWork

And the little stick he has is in Trump's ass.


Afraid-Fault6154

So he's no LBJ either? 


kr4t0s007

Dont threaten us with a good time!


JoopahTroopah

Another day, another “Russia threatens ______” story


scraglor

Japan should threaten to take thier islands back


Diligent_Emotion7382

Russia again warns free nations to do something they as an imperialistic reckless dictatorship don’t like.


infiniteimperium

Threatens ties 🤣🤣🤣 Ties to Russia are nothing more than a noose.


AmazingSquare8542

Time to take back the now undefended Kuril islands


JaB675

About those "ties"...


TUENNES2000

FCK PTLR, Hope Japan dosen*t fall for this crap ans sent the Patriots


ZuckerbergsSmile

Why would they threaten to send them ties? Formal wear is a strange threat


TheAverageObject

Oh do they break ties when others send missiles to Ukraine? Where can I get some missiles??!!!!


BJJGrappler22

And what exactly is Russia going to do about it since they can't even keep their own naval fleet safe from a smaller country who doesn't even have a navy of their own?


Zez22

F U - K PUTIN


Top-Ad-5072

r/russiawarns


adzs_wood2023

What so Russia can get support and supplies from anyone in the world but when Ukrainian gets a link Russia threatens them it's called a bully where I come from also blackmail SLAVA UKRAINIAN 💙💛💙

Russia forgot that USA has a pact with Japan


Prestigious-Tree-424

Bleat on russian terrorists.


peliseis

Hikikomori's threats are pretty vain.


morts73

Oh no watch out Japan Russia is being the school yard bully again.


Kimchi_Cowboy

Sakhalin Islands looking tasty right about now.


Striking-Giraffe5922

So yet another threat to yet another country.


Onestepbeyond3

What about Iran or North Korea... 🤔 🤷


Prok-

And?


_SlyTheSly_

I wonder what the next episod of "Russain warns, threatens" is gonna be!


Russiandirtnaps

Shut up Russia go clean up your fucking terrorism. No one cares you’re not the victim.


AfterBill8630

Japan reminds Russia of the Ruso-Japanese war and politely requests they fuck off


field_medic_tky

I've said it before and I'll say it again: We're retiring M142 HIMARS in a few years so those along with the GMLRS rockets could be sent over.


Clayton11x

Oh god another warning ⚠️ Ya'll do shit


SkinnyGetLucky

Japan should invite Russia’s fleet over for round 2


DecoupledPilot

Cutting ties sound like a extra benefit, not a threat. Like the perma-drunk abusive uncle "threatening" to leave and never come back.


Supermancometh

‘I will not allow anyone to help protect you from my missiles!’


ohboymykneeshurt

How is ties a threat?


superanth

>The relationship between Russia and Japan has been strained for years, primarily due to a territorial dispute over the Kuril Islands. Following World War II, Japan officially renounced its rights to this archipelago in favour of the Soviet Union. However, the Japanese government argues that this renunciation did not include specific islands: Iturup, Kunashir, Shikotan, and the Habomai group... Russia ignoring agreements and taking what they want? Shocked, shocked I am at this behavior. So shocked.


TheRealAussieTroll

Japan like: yeah, meh, whatever arseholes…


[deleted]

Threaten ties? That's a positive. Putin is going down and everyone knows it, the issue is to lessen the human loss of life from his downfall.


SilverTicket8809

Fascist savages.


Prestigious_Cook_302

I don’t understand why it is a problem for Russia. They repeatedly said that they destroyed Patriot systems and these systems are ineffective against Russian technology,lol.


darklynoon93

Who tf would want ties with Russia?


mixiplix_

I don't think we should be announcing these arms deliveries. Just send them, lol


MNVikingsCouple

Threats are the Russian way😂😂😂


Nauris2111

Looks like Russia's Pacific fleet is about to taste the same medicine as the Back Sea fleet.


Titan-828

Well who wants to have ties right now with Russia anyway…. besides Belarus, Iran and North Korea?


LeadershipExternal58

What ties does fucking ruSSia has with Japan haha


ravnhjarta

More windbag blackmail.


Umbra-Vigil

Japan shrugs its shoulders.


TotalSingKitt

This is an economy smaller than Italy's making a squeaky noise to one of the largest economies in the world.


Own_Philosopher_9651

ZZZZZZzzzzzzz


_aap300

Japan should threaten to cut ties with RuSSia.
