The Russian Embassy in Japan demanded access to a citizen of Russia, who sailed from the island of Kunashir to Hokkaido Island to provide him with diplomatic protection. Information about this appeared on the official page of the department in Facebook .
According to the information of the migration authorities of Japan, we are talking about the Russian citizen Vaas Phoenix Nokard. In turn, the Russian embassy demands from the Japanese side to admit employees of the Consulate General of the Russian Federation in Sapporo. The agency emphasizes that it is necessary “to ensure its legal rights, as well as clarifying the state of its health and conditions of content.”
Previously, the Japanese authorities refused to provide official information about a man who allegedly sailed from Kunashir to Hokkaido. As the head of the Japanese service explained, the inability to cooperate with the Russian draft law is due to the lack of guidelines in Tokyo, as well as unconfirmed men.
