Lavrov says told Japanese FM Russia's position on WWII outcomes in detail, didn't hear objections

MOSCOW. Jan 14 (Interfax) - Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said following talks with his Japanese counterpart on Monday that he conveyed Moscow's position on the outcomes of WWII in detail.

"I voiced our position on the outcomes of WWII in an extremely detailed and extensive way," Lavrov said.

In addition to the Treaty of San Francisco and the Soviet-Japanese Declaration of 1956, "which makes an integral whole with the Treaty of San Francisco and draws the final line under WWII, there's also such a non-trivial document as the UN Charter," Lavrov said.

"Its Article 107 recognizes the outcomes of WWII in the shape in which the Allies formalized them and recognizes them as inviolable," he said.

"We reminded our Japanese counterparts of this once again today, and I didn't hear objections," Lavrov said.
