The Kuril Islands Dispute Is A Territorial Dispute Between Japan And Russia Over The Ownership Of The Four Southernmost Kuril Islands. The Kuril Islands, Whuch Are A Chain Of Islands That Stretch From The Japanese Island Of Hokkaido At Their Southern End And The Russian Kamchatka Peninsula At Their Northern End. The Islands Separate The Sea Of Okhotsk From The Pacific Ocean. The Kuril Islands Dispute Dates Back To The End Of World War Ii When The Soviet Union Annexed The Islands, Which Were Previously Held By Japan. The Main Islands In Dispute Are Iturup, Kunashir, Shikotan, And Habomai. Japan Claims Sovereignty Over The Islands Based On Treaties From The 19th Century, While Russia Maintains Control Based On Its Occupation Of The Islands Following World War II.
Back In 1855, The Treaty Of Shimoda, Was Signed Between The Russian Empire And Japan, Which Established Official Relations Between The Two Countries. According To The Treaty The Borders Between Russia And Japan Were Decided. According To The Treaty, The Border Will Pass Between The Islands Of Iturup (Etorofu) And Urup (Uruppu). With All Islands South To Ituup Belonging To Japan And All Islands North Of Urup Belonging To Russia. The Treaty Also Placed The Island Of Sakhalin Under A Joint Russo-japanese Control.
In 1875, After The 1875 Treaty Of Saint Petersburg, Japan Agreed To Give Russia The Control Of The Sakhalin Island, Which Was Now Until Joint Control, In Exchange Of All The Kuril Islands.
After The The Russo-japanese War Of 1904, In Which Russia Lost. The 1905 Treaty Of Portsmouth, Was Signed, Following The Treaty Russia Gave The Control Of Southern Half Of Sakhalin Island To Japan. So After This Treaty, All The Kuril Islands And The Southern Half Of The Sakhalin Island Was Under Japanese Control.
During World War 2 , After The Defeat Of Germany,
The Yalta Conference Was Held In February 1945.
The Allies Asked Russia To Attack Japan In Exchange Of The Sakhalin Island And The Kuril Islands. The Soviet Union Invaded South Sakhalin And The Kuril Islands In The Subsequent Days.
The San Francisco Peace Treaty, Signed Between The Allies And Japan In 1951, Also Does Not Recognize The Soviet Union's Sovereignty Over Them. Japan And The Soviet Union Ended Their Formal State Of War With The Soviet–japanese Joint Declaration Of 1956 But Did Not Sign A Peace Treaty.
In 1951, The Allies (France, Great Britain, The United States, The Soviet Union) And Japan Signed The San Francisco Peace Treaty And Made Japan Give Up Its Rights, Title And Claim To The Kuril Islands”. However, The Treaty Does Not Recognise The Sovereignty Of The Ussr On Them. Japan Claims That The Four Southernmost Islands Are Not Part Of The Kuril Islands And Are Not Part Of The San Francesco Treaty.
