On July 24, 1997 the Prime-Minister of Japan, the highly experienced politician Rutaro Hasimoto addressed to his compatriots-businessmen and stated out his "new diplomatic concept". "Today I would like to attract your attention to the way the foreign policy of our nation with Russia, China and the Silk Road region should be developing", - Hasimoto-san said. "Speaking of countries of Central Asia and Caucasus, which emerged within the Silk Road region after the Cold War epoch, it is important to note that they are making great efforts to achieve prosperity in the conditions of new political-economic system, - said the Prime-Minister of Japan. - We are glad that these countries have high expectations for Japan, as an Asian country. In fact, our country has a specific nostalgic attitude to this region, which derives from the times of the Silk Road". The Japanese Prime-Minister distinguished three concepts in the policy towards the countries of the Silk Road region (this means the newly independent states of Central Asia and Caucasus). "First, it is a political dialogue to strengthen the trust and mutual understanding, - he emphasized. - Second, it is economic cooperation and cooperation in development of natural resources to ensure the region's prosperity. Third, it is achieving peace within the region through non-proliferation, democratization and stabilization". Rutaro Hasimoto in his doctrine places the emphasis on a long-term and mutually beneficial cooperation, right up to the creation of a common global economic zone in not so distant prospects. Japan wants as well as is able to play its role in the new geostrategic region of the Silk Road, relying first of all on its international corporations, helping them to settle and to entrench themselves in the raw material and labour markets of Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Tadjikistan somewhat new and somewhat not new for them. Japan is attracted to the region of the Great Silk Road by oil and non-ferrous metals of Kazakhstan, cotton fiber and non-ferrous metals of Uzbekistan, water-power resources of Kyrgyzstan and Tadjikistan, oil of Turkmenistan and Azerbaidjan, as well as transport communications of these countries, their modernizing and joining into a unified corridor for constantly expanding transit traffic to prosperous Europe and backwards.
