After World War II, Moscow and Tokyo have been continuously holding consultations to conclude the peace treaty. The issue of the southern Kuril Islands is the key sticking point. Further, the whole archipelago was handed over to the Soviet Union in 1945. Tokyo had established its appearance in Iturup, Kunashir, Shikotan and a group of uninhabited islands.

Further, the foreign Ministry of Russia has repeatedly claimed Moscow’s sovereignty over the islands, and international law also enshrined this. So, no one can put a question on it.

In November 2018, Russian President Vladimir Putin and then Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe came to a conclusion and agreed to boost the negotiations on the peace treaty, which is based on the Soviet-Japanese Joint Declaration of 1956.

According to the document, the USSR showed its readiness to give the island of Shikotan and some other islands of the Lesser Kuril Chain to Japan after they signed a peace treaty.
