Russian island Kunashir reportedly drifting toward Japan's Hokkaido

Original: кунашир

Russian media report that Kunashir, one of the disputed Kuril Islands, may be slowly moving toward Hokkaido, which could theoretically give Russia a land border with Japan. The claim, carried by outlets including Life.ru, touches on one of the most sensitive issues between the two countries: Russia and Japan never signed a peace treaty after World War II because of their dispute over the Southern Kurils, which Japan calls its Northern Territories.

Why now: The report touches on the sensitive Russia-Japan territorial dispute over the Kuril Islands, drawing public attention in Russia.
