 Moscow, Japan, U.S. plan to deploy missiles in Asia threatens Russia's security. Japan's participation in the Pentagon's plans to deploy medium-range and short-range missiles in Asia creates additional threats to the security of Russia's Far East, Russian Security Council Secretary Nikolay Patrushev said. The Pentagon, in its plans to deploy medium-range and short-range missiles in Asia, assigns an important role to Japan, which creates additional security threats to our Far Eastern territories. Patrushev said in Magadan at a meeting on the security of Russia's Far Eastern Federal District. He said that Tokyo has embarked on a course towards militarization following Washington's lead, as it is once again reading from the Russian and Chinese threats playbook. It has long been known that Washington and London organize coups around the globe in pursuit of their interests and then carry them out by someone else's hands similar to what happened in Ukraine, Patrushev told. According to him, in recent years, the Anglo-Saxons have been trying to get Japan involved in their reckless geopolitical intrigues. Following in the wake of U.S. policies, Tokyo has embraced militarization. Imperialistic slogans are being heard again. Playbooks on the Russian and Chinese threats are being pulled down from the archive shelves and dusted off. Revanches plans are being made to retake the Northern Territories, ceded to us as a result of World War II. The Russian Security Council secretary said earlier Igor Kostyukov, the chief of the main directorate of the Russian Armed Forces, General Staff said that the Pentagon is preparing to deploy two promising multisphere brigades capable of striking Russia with long-range precision weapons in the Asia-Pacific region in 2028. The Japanese island of Iwo Jima is being considered as a possible location for these weapons.
