RUSSIAN THIRST FOR MORE WAR MORE PROBLEMS/DESTABILIZATION OF THE WORLD: Putin 's Russia Today outlet complains how Kabukis are now looking out for Putin too - On Sergey Lavrov's territorial provocations AHEAD OF ATTACK ON UKRAINE in respect to seized by USSR's Kuril's islands(Northern parts of Japan) during WWII, Japanese prime minster Yoshimasa Hayashi calms LAVROV down with cold facts

As it appears, nobody in this world is interested in giving its territories(national territorial integrity) away to Russia for apples....Lavrov desperately needed territorial assurance from Japan ahead of what appears will be yet another Russian territorial WAR in attempt to steal more land from

its Ukrainian neighbors, but was rejected. If it was for Russian logic of today, Germany would no longer exist on map and nor would Japan or Italy as all would have US flag in place instead...if world would have waited for Russian WWII victory(God forbid USSR "liberation") alone, much of it including Russia would trade their flags for nazi swastika. 

Note and compare Russian state article to Russian Ukrainian Crimea and Donetsk(both occupied by Russia since 2014) claims  as Russia calls Kuril Islands a Russian territory...one thing is certain, Russian aggression is obtaining more and more echo as world took close note about what goes on in there - Putin's tsarist chair begun to squeak with VERY VERY STRONG possibilities for someone else that could soon claim Russian land as land of its own...

Japan claims sovereignty over Russian territory

Minister believes the southern part of the Kuril Islands is rightfully Japanese 

By Jonny Tickle

Tokyo will not give up its claim that Russia’s southern Kuril Islands in the Pacific Ocean are rightfully Japanese, and wants to reach a deal with Moscow to resolve the dispute, its foreign minister said on Tuesday.

Speaking at a press conference, Yoshimasa Hayashi responded to claims by his Russian counterpart Sergey Lavrov that Tokyo is refusing to recognize the results of the Second World War, when the Soviet Union took control of the Kuril Islands.

“Our sovereignty extends to the four Northern Islands,” Hayashi said. “We intend to continue persistent negotiations on the basis of our basic position, which is the desire to sign a peace treaty after the territorial issue is resolved.”

The Northern Islands is the name given by Japan to the four islands at the bottom of the Kuril chain. The landmasses, named Iturup, Kunashir, Shikotan, and Habomai, were all part of Japan before World War Two.

After the conflict finished, the Soviet Union and Japan did not sign a peace treaty, with the dispute over their sovereignty being the main sticking point. The whole island chain has been in Moscow’s possession ever since.

The two nations have attempted to come to a solution over the islands for over half a century, but Russia has repeatedly stressed that its sovereignty over these territories is not up for debate.

Last year, newly inaugurated Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida repeated that Tokyo would not sign a peace treaty with Moscow until a solution is found.

In recent years, Russia has sought to fortify the Kurils, and late in 2021, deployed the Bastion missile system on the island of Matua. Once a large Japanese base, Matua is now the home to an around-the-clock Russian crew that will help control the Sea of Okhotsk, which is located between the island chain and mainland Russia.
