Zaharova, mesaj plin de ironii după ce vizita lui Putin, pe insulele din cauza cărora Japonia și Rusia nu au tratat de pace nici acum, a înfuriat Tokyo

Russia has dismissed Japan's criticisms regarding Putin's visit to the disputed Kuril Islands, labeling them unfounded and politically inappropriate. Maria Zakharova emphasized Russia's sovereignty over the islands, which Japan claims as its own. The visit has heightened tensions, with Japan's leaders expressing strong disapproval, stating it contradicts their stance on the Northern Territories. The long-standing territorial dispute remains unresolved, contributing to the lack of a peace treaty between the two nations since World War II. Japan's support for Ukraine and sanctions against Russia have further strained relations.
