Russia said on Monday (Sep 26) it had detained a Japanese diplomat based in the eastern city of Vladivostok for carrying out espionage-related work and declared the official person non grata, news agencies reported.

"A Japanese diplomat was detained red-handed while receiving classified information, in exchange for money, about Russia's cooperation with another country in the Asia-Pacific region," the FSB security service said in a statement, carried by Russian news agencies.

The Japanese live in a very dangerous neighborhood. Russia,China and North Korea are all outlaw nations ruled by genuine psychopaths.Who can blame Japan for spying on them? You can be damn sure that they're spying on Japan!

The Russkies are still mad that they didn’t get North Japan from the 37th parallel after WWII, the way they got North Korea
