Şefa guvernului nipon cere Rusiei să îndepărteze o statuie care sărbătoreşte victoria asupra Japoniei: "Total inacceptabilă"

Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi has demanded the removal of a recently unveiled statue in Russia that commemorates victory over Japan in World War II, calling it unacceptable. The statue depicts a Soviet soldier destroying a stone block engraved with the chrysanthemum symbol, which represents Japan. Takaichi stated that the statue insults the feelings of the Japanese people and that her government has requested its removal. This incident follows recent tensions between Japan and Russia, exacerbated by remarks from President Vladimir Putin blaming Japan for deteriorating relations. The situation has escalated since Putin's visit to the disputed Northern Territories, prompting both countries to recall their ambassadors.
