The island north of Japan that belongs to Russia is called Sakhalin. It is the largest island in Russia and is located just north of the Japanese island of Hokkaido, across the La Pérouse Strait. Sakhalin has a rich history and diverse Natural Resources, and it is known for its rugged terrain and unique wildlife. The island plays a significant role in the regional geopolitics between Russia and Japan.
