China's engagement with Japan, the Koreas, and Russia has been a key aspect of its foreign policy since the late 1970s. This engagement has been driven by a number of factors, including China's desire to improve its relations with its neighbors, to promote economic cooperation, and to ensure its security.

In the era of reform studies, China's engagement with these countries has become increasingly important. This is due in part to the fact that these countries are all key players in the Asia-Pacific region, and China's relations with them have a significant impact on the stability and prosperity of the region.
