Washington recognizes Japan's sovereignty over four islands in southern Kurils — US envoy​


ps
4 islands are not Kurils, they are The Northern Territories

The Northern Territories consist of four islands located off the northeast coast of the Nemuro Peninsula of Hokkaido. They are: Habomai, Shikotan, Kunashiri and Etorofu. The Northern Territories are not included in the Kurile Islands.


 
It is likely that Russia and China conducted a joint military drill near Rebun Island, where the IL-38 patrol plane was spotted. Japan's territorial waters only extend to three nautical miles into the Soya Strait instead of the usual twelve, which gives Russia more room along the strait. The Il-38 is designed to counter American ballistic missile submarines. Japan allows nuclear-armed United States Navy warships and submarines to transit the Soya Strait.



On Sunday and Monday, nine Russian and Chinese naval vessels including a destroyer passed through the Soya Strait near Rebun Island and headed east, according to the ministry.

Given that the Russian military has deepened its cooperation with the Chinese military in recent years, this incursion into Japanese airspace could have been a coordinated move with the naval fleet.

good :thup:
commie Han-China’s claims to Moscow’s Far East (Outer Manchuria) are fact-based and indisputable. The thoughts of Chinese imperialists are focused on a particular Siberian city (Vladivostok ) —one famous for its sea cucumbers, a popular Chinese delicacy. China has ALREADY declared part of Moscow empire as its territory on new official maps han- China's state-owned Standard Map Service has presented a set of geographic maps for 2023, on which for the first time part of Moscow's territory is indicated as part of China. It is about the Bolshoy Ussuriysky Island on the Amur River.
with friends like these who needs enemies?
