Bulgaria: Russia To Take Decisive Steps Towards Solving Territorial Dispute with Japan

Russia is prepared to take decisive steps towards solving its 70-year territorial dispute with Japan over a few islands in the Pacific, announced Vladimir Putin at a business forum in Vladivostok. "The past should not prevent us from moving forward," stated the Russian President.

Vladimir Putin underlined that all steps towards resolving the dispute must be carefully considered and that the issue must be settled in accordance with the national interests of both countries.

In turn, the Japanese Prime Minister called on Putin to put an end to the "abnormal situation" between the two countries. Russia and Japan have not yet signed a peace treaty after the end of World War II.
