Famous Asian political scientists on the forum told about what Russian Federation could become an important link in creating peace on the Korean Peninsula, which Japan sees Russia as a future partner in security matters, And that Singapore would prefer the independence And neutrality of Russia in political matters. So, for example, Japanese historian And political scientist, Professor of political science at Sofia University Tadashi Anno said RIA "Novosti" that last year the crisis in Ukraine had a negative impact on Russian-Japanese relations." But on the reverse side, at present the Japanese are worried about the growing power of China. Most Japanese see the Russian Federation as a potential partner in security matters. Among young people attitude towards Rossi is not fast, But improving. And I think there are great opportunities for further development of Russian-Japanese relations, " said Anno. Similarly, in the process of the forum were discussed the issues of Russian influence on the Korean Peninsula. Professor And research Director IFES Kyungnam University lim Eul Chul revealed that the normalization of relations on the Korean Peninsula may in the future become the basis For alternatives to Chinese investments in the Russian Federation.

Former Ambassador of Singapore (1994-95), and is currently the Ambassador for special assignments of the Ministry of foreign Affairs of Singapore Bilahari Kausikan told that, despite the fact that on the Western borders of Russia there are problems, its Eastern border is quite calm And stable. He said that sooner or later Ukraine And Europe will need to come to some agreement containing the desires of all parties, And the desire of Russia." But I would like to watch the Russian Federation, which plays a more independent And Autonomous role in East Asia, at least as long as Russia will not resolve the issues in the West. But we must remember that Russia has a Junior partner in the East - Singapore, " added the Ambassador.
