According to the Japanese Kyodo publisher, Russia refuses to even discuss with Japan the transfer of the two Russian islands of the Kuril Islands Ridge after the scandalous admission of Tokyo at the G-20 Summit in Osaka. It is worth remembering that Japan defiantly in defiance of international acts concluded on the basis of the World War II, in the materials for the meeting designated these islands as Japanese territories.

Moscow declared a protest to Tokyo and now does not even accept the discussion of the Kuril Islands transfer issue. And the conclusion of a peace treaty between the two countries is complicated by a close alliance between Tokyo and Washington, which has the right to deploy its military bases throughout Japan. Consequently, if the islands come under the jurisdiction of Japan, American military bases will immediately be located there, which is unacceptable for Moscow.
