  • The roughly 1,200-kilometre Kuril chain officially belongs to Russia, while Japan claims the four southernmost islands as its own territory.

  • Putin made his first visit to the southern Kurils, prompting Japan’s government to lodge a strong protest, while Foreign Minister Toshimitsu Motegi called the islands Japanese territory.

  • Moscow ended peace negotiations in March 2022, with Russia’s Foreign Ministry citing Japan’s allegedly openly hostile stance over its sanctions against Russia as the reason.
  • The islands are both historically and legally Japanese sovereign territory.
