U.S. envoy affirms Japan's Kuril sovereignty
The American ambassador to Japan announced that the United States recognizes Japan's sovereignty over the Kuril Islands disputed with Moscow. He emphasized that Washington strongly supports Tokyo’s position and considers these islands to be part of Japanese territory. Meanwhile, Russian President Vladimir Putin visited Etorp Island, one of these islands, for the first time, an action Japan viewed as an escalation that conflicts with its firm stance. The visit came after Russian military maneuvers, and disagreements over the sovereignty of these islands between Russia and Japan continue.
