HATOYAMA Ichiro


picAt KYUKAEN, with his wife and FUKUNAGA Kenji, a former Speaker of the House of Representatives.
Hatoyama was highly pleased that day and mentioned Japan-Soviet Union negotiations.
He said "When I said to Nikita Khrushchev, "If you return the Kuril Islands to Japan, I will give you a bonsai of Ezo pine.", Khrushchev replied "I will return only Kunashiri Island, so make an agreement.", then I refused it."

Hatoyama's signature from KYUKAEN visitor's book(left).
We put out the book meaning the right page for Mr. Hatoyama and the left one for Mrs. Hatoyama, but he used two pages and left no room for Mrs. Hatoyama.
The right one is Mrs. Hatoyama's signature.
