| Summary / Abstract (Note) | The stepping up of Russian-Japanese relations initiated in 2016 by RF President Vladimir Putin and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has led to the next stage of discussing the need to conclude a peace treaty to resolve the territorial issue. Japan has traditionally continued to insist on "the return of the Northern Territories." However, the position of Moscow, which favors signing a peace treaty based on the Soviet-Japanese Joint Declaration of 1956, evokes a negative reaction, primarily among the Russian public. |
