Washington recognizes Japan's claim on Southern Kurils
The United States highlighted its recognition of Japan's sovereignty over the four disputed islands in the Kuril Archipelago, following Russian President Vladimir Putin's visit to Iturup Island, which sparked official Japanese protests. The American ambassador to Japan confirmed Washington's support for Tokyo's claims, as the Kuril Islands dispute—rooted in the aftermath of World War II—continues. Japan claims four southern islands, while Russia asserts that the islands are part of its territory and that its sovereignty is non-negotiable. This dispute remains one of the most prominent sources of disagreement between Russia and Japan and has caused regional tensions for decades.
