Japan protests UN over Kuril Islands map
Japan has called on the United Nations to review the new world map it adopted, as it shows the disputed Kuril Islands in the same color used for Russian territory. The map indicates that the islands Japan refers to as the "Northern Territories" are depicted in a manner that conflicts with Japan’s stance, amid a ongoing dispute since 1945, when the Soviet Union took control of the islands and expelled the Japanese residents. Japan has expressed a diplomatic protest and demanded a correction in the representation of these islands to prevent the spread of misconceptions about its territories.
