Russian President Vladimir Putin’s visit to Iturup in the disputed Kuril Islands has triggered a strong reaction from Japan, reigniting a decades-old territorial dispute between Moscow and Tokyo. Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi called Putin’s visit “absolutely unacceptable,” insisting that the Northern Territories remain Japan’s inherent territory. Japan’s Foreign Minister Toshimitsu Motegi also lodged a strong protest over the Russian president’s trip.
Putin visited a fish plant, hospital and school on Iturup, an island controlled by Russia but claimed by Japan as part of its Northern Territories. The territorial dispute has remained a major obstacle to a formal Russia-Japan World War II peace treaty. The latest confrontation comes as Russia continues strengthening its presence across the Kuril Islands, adding fresh tension to already strained ties between Moscow and Tokyo.
