Abstract

 

Modern Japan has unresolved territorial disputes with neighboring countries, such as the People's Republic of China, South Korea (Republic of Korea), and the Russian Federation. Opposing parties are trying to protect their positions, both according to international legislation and historical facts. The purpose of this work is not to determine the truth of the positions of the disputing parties but to familiarize stakeholders with the historical past. Historical documents, as well as official reports and announcements, were used during the research.
