Japan sought to expand its influence in East Asia and saw Korea as a gateway to the Asian mainland, while Russia aimed to secure access to warm-water ports and extend its territorial reach. The competition for dominance in Korea ultimately contributed to the tensions that led to the Russo-Japanese War in 1904-1905.
