ガルージン駐日大使、来月退任　ロシア

　ロシアのミハイル・ガルージン駐日大使（６２）が１１月中に退任することが分かった。国営ロシア通信が２８日、在日大使館関係者の話として伝えた。ロシア外務省きっての「知日派」で、ウクライナ侵攻と対ロシア制裁で日ロ関係が悪化し、双方による外交官の国外退去にも発展する中での帰任となる。（2022/10/29-01:21）

Russian Ambassador to Japan Mikhail Galuzin will leave office in November, a Russian state-run news agency reported Friday.
Galuzin, known to be best versed in Japan among Russian Foreign Ministry officials, will be returning to Russia at a time when Japan-Russia relations are deteriorating due to Russia's invasion of Ukraine and Western sanctions imposed on Moscow over the invasion.
Fluent in Japanese, Galuzin assumed the post of Russian ambassador to Japan in March 2018. He often advocated a hardline stance toward the long-standing Tokyo-Moscow dispute over four Russian-held northwestern Pacific islands claimed by Japan, which has prevented the two countries from signing a World War II peace treaty.
