#Japan reminded #Russia of the occupation of the Southern #Kuril Islands without recognizing the legal results of the elections in this region

“These are the ancestral territories of our country, and #Russia continues to hold illegal elections there,” said the head of the Foreign Ministry.

Earlier, the #Japanese authorities also stated that they would not recognize the results of the elections in the occupied territory of #Ukraine.
