Japan agreed to the Potsdam Declaration which specified that only the 4 main islands were to remain part of Japan, with the smaller islands being at the discretion of the Allies. So Japan agreed to relinquish control.

Just what are you talking about? The Potsdam Agreement talks about Europe

Just got Ninja'd.

 

In any case, the Kuril Islands were a point in the San Francisco Peace treaty, in which it says that Japan has to renounce the islands + Sakhalin, etc. The issue arrives from the fact that Japan claims that the islands they claim aren't part of the Kuril Islands as stipulated in the Peace treaty.

Yeah, I mixed up the Agreement and Declaration.
