On the 5th, Russian ministers visited the northern territory, Kunashiri Island, and attended the opening ceremony of the disaster prevention facility, reiterating the position of Russia's development of the islands including the northern territory.
Visiting Kunashir Island was Russia's Ginichev Emergency Phase, and on the 5th, he attended the opening ceremony of the new "Rescue and Rescue Center," a facility for disaster prevention and rescue activities.
According to the Ministry of Emergency Situation of Russia, the facility will be equipped with the latest system for monitoring and forecasting weather conditions, which will help protect the islanders from natural disasters and will be opened on Etorofu Island in the future. ..
At the opening ceremony, the emergency minister, Zinichev, "guarantees that this facility will protect both the inhabitants and the territory" and reiterated the position of Russia's development of the islands, including the Northern Territories.
It was not until August last year that several cabinet ministers, including then Prime Minister Medvedev, visited Etorofu Island.
On the other hand, the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs has filed a protest through the Russian Embassy in Japan, saying that it cannot be accepted because it is incompatible with Japan's position.
In Russia, the constitution revised last month includes an item prohibiting the ceding of territory, and public opinion against the return of the islands to Japan is growing.
