Russia Tells Japan Kuril Claims Unfounded
Moscow rejected Japanese criticisms following Russian President Vladimir Putin's visit to the Kuril Islands, emphasizing that sovereignty over the islands was transferred to Russia after World War II in accordance with international agreements. They stated that these claims lack a legal basis or political justification. Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova pointed out that Japan's stance reflects an adversarial policy toward Russia, noting that Tokyo supports Ukraine and imposes sanctions on Moscow, thereby increasing tensions between the two countries over the islands, which the Soviet Union seized in 1945.
