The Japanese Prime Minister publicly stated that a Taiwan contingency could constitute a survival-threatening situation that might trigger the use of collective self-defense.

This is the first time in 80 years that a Japanese Prime Minister has made such remarks. It directly violates China’s territorial sovereignty and directly challenges the fact that Taiwan has been returned to China.

It completely violates Japan’s commitments to China.

Could China possibly accept such a provocation? No—no Chinese person could accept it.

After WW2, Germany conducted a thorough reckoning with Nazi crimes and passed laws banning speech and actions that promote Nazi ideology.

But Japan still pays homage to Class A war criminals, and they are enshrined as so-called "heroic spirits."

So this means that Japan has lingering ambitions for invasion and colonialism of Taiwan, and the ghosts of militarism are still haunting the country.

The lessons of history are not far behind us.

Every country that values peace should shout this loud and clear at Japan right now:

If you go back down that old road, it will be a dead end.

But if you try gambling again, the loss will be faster and more devastating.

"But we can also give a ceasefire for Russians if they will do elections in Russia.

During the meeting with the President of Azerbaijan, Ilham Aliyev. I informed him about the general situation in the energy system and the consequences of Russian strikes on energy infrastructure facilities.

I am grateful for the recent energy support package. We discussed the development of bilateral relations and the implementation of projects in the energy sector, in which Azerbaijan is interested.

We also paid attention to the negotiation process for establishing peace. Ukraine always constructively supports efforts that can help achieve a decent peace.
The only reason why the war is still ongoing is Russia's unwillingness to end it.
