Japan loses from sanctions against Russia, but profits break records

  The losses of seven leading Japanese corporations from the impact of sanctions imposed against Russia over Ukraine were estimated at over $2 billion by April. Among others, Mitsui, Mitsubishi and Sumitomo lost money. The newspaper Sankei Shimbun wrote this (https://www.sankei.com/article/20220510-R4PAUDG3WRNPZH5MZRWRBFFZVA/photo/SRURFTOL4BNSDNAJNKVHNZW27E/) based on the results of the companies' annual reports for last year. The amount of losses includes reduction of the market price of corporate assets in Russia and Sakhalin-1 (https://t.me/asian_states_in_ukrainian_crisis/1052) and Sakhalin-2 Asia oil and gas projects. Despite the losses, the final profit of all seven companies reached a record high level. The other day, the G-7 countries agreed to reduce their dependence on Russian energy resources - primarily oil and gas. At the same time, Tokyo, a member of the group, intends to retain its shares in Sakhalin projects.

What Japan thinks about Russia and Ukraine

  Today we asked Japanese girls and Japanese boys on the streets of Tokyo about their thoughts on the war between Russia and the Ukraine.   As a Ukrainian I want say that I was really surprised to hear about the war on this channel. I subscribed just to learn some Japanese and it always seemed to me like Japan is so far away from Ukraine that most Japanese people don't even know about our existence. And now even here I hear the news about my country. This is strange. It's like a completely different reality   Amazing how she was able to stay professional and not tell what she thinks about it herself. I know that's how good journalism is but if i was in her place i sure as hell wouldn't have been able to stay that calm. So good job.   I wonder if the Japanese in Hokkaido who live close to the Kuril Islands feel compare to the Tokyo residents in this video since its another land that has a long history of disputed over between Russian and Japan.

Japan: we must return the Kurils, Russia is falling into poverty and decline

  Russia's depletion is a chance to reclaim the "Northern Territories" - the Kuril Islands, military analyst and retired General Seiyu Mori writes in a JBPress article (https://telp.cc/LUG). The Russian army is losing billions of dollars every day fighting in Ukraine, the equipment cannot be recovered, and with a military budget of over $ 60 billion, Russia will not be able to fight for long, but every day is dragging it further down, Mori noted    In his view, "despite the optimistic mood of the Russian president, it is inevitable that the Russian people will have less desire to fight. Young people are leaving the country, along with talented people, undermining its fortress... Contrary to Putin's optimism, depletion and decline of Russia is inevitable, and a situation may arise where the process of returning the Northern Territories will have to be initiated. In a territorial dispute , the weakening of the other side is an excellent chance", the analyst ...

Ukraine apologizes to Japan for video with Emperor Hirohito and Hitler

The Japanese authorities were outraged at the comparison of Emperor Hirohito with Hitler and Mussolini in a video posted on the official Twitter of the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry. The video, dedicated to Russia's invasion of Ukraine, contained parallels to what happened during World War II. "Putting it in the same line is completely incorrect and deeply regrettable. Through the Japanese embassy in Ukraine, we have issued a reprimand to the Ukrainian government demanding its removal," Yoshihiko Isozaki, deputy secretary-general of the Japanese cabinet, said. The video was removed, replaced by another one without the emperor's mention, and the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry published an apology on its Twitter account.
