Study Of Northeast Asia Energy Cooperation

Energy is the basis for regional economic development, the lifeblood of the national economy and the important strategic resource. Energy shortage has become one of the issues of common concern in the world, of course, is also the focus of the Northeast Asian countries. Russia has the most abundant energy resources in the Northeast Asian countries, it oil and gas, from reserves and exports perspective, are the forefront of the world. China, Japan, South Korea respectively, is the world second, third and fourth of the major energy importing countries, Mongolia and North Korea are two potential national energy needs. Northeast Asia is one of the fastest economic development regions in the world, energy demand continues to rise, energy cooperation between the countries still lags behind, mainly confined to the bilateral cooperation in the form of energy imports, for energy import vicious competition, the slow progress of multilateral cooperation. But the multilateral energy cooperation in Northeast Asia has strong need for the possibility and reality, it not only can complement advantages, reduce risk the development of energy resources, protect the energy security strategy, but also can speed up the process of regional integration, access to good regional economic effects. This is in accord with the region in the common interest. At the same time, we should also see that the multilateral energy cooperation in Northeast Asia has obstacles and constraints, such as geo-political factors, factors such as the United States. At present, to protect our country's energy security, we need strengthen energy cooperation with Russia, which is built on the economy on the basis of mutually beneficial win-win and win-win situation. It is one of the important ways to realize China energy imports wide range of channels. To further solve the problem of energy security in the Northeast Asia countries, to avoid vicious competition, we should build the multilateral energy cooperation mechanism in Northeast Asia on the basis of multilateral cooperation to realize peace, prosperity and stability in Northeast Asia.
