Good point. So why don't you eventually make a treaty? Does Japan still want Sachalin?

But then Japan is not a dictatorship, demanding absolute obedience and killing its own people for the slightest critique of the government. I have always wondered how the communism of the time could ever accept a state like North Korea as having anything to do with "communism"? Ah, Stalin.. if you call a one-man-dictatorship "communism" it makes "sense", ok. in astrict sense, the "Soviet" Union never had anything to do with communism.


*edit: ok it is about the Kurils, sorry. And a treaty ending the war has been signed between Russia, and Japan in 1956. Seems there are current talks about the islands in qustion, Putin will travel to Japan in december 2017, to talk about that once more.
