During his visit to Ukraine, Prime Minister of Japan Fumio Kishida visited Bucha in the Kiev region, which has already become the embodiment of the cruelty and inhuman behavior of the Russian army. About this today, March 21, Reuters writes

Kishida noted that she was stunned by the atrocities committed in this city and felt intense anger because of it.

“The world was shocked when innocent civilians were killed in Bucha a year ago. I am truly outraged by this atrocity that I visited the same place here,” he said.

The prime minister laid a wreath in front of the local church, followed by a minute’s silence to honor the memory of the dead.

In addition, according to the country’s Foreign Ministry, Kishida will express during the negotiations in Kiev “strongly disagree” with Russia’s actions in Ukraine. As head of the G7, Japan will seek to impose tougher sanctions against Russia.”

It was learned that on March 21, Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida will visit Ukraine to meet with President Volodymyr Zelensky.

According to the Japanese publication JIJI, the prime minister abruptly changed his plans to return to Japan from India, where he was on an official visit, without prior notice for security reasons.

Japanese journalists point out that G7 leaders outside of Japan, including US President Joe Biden, have already visited Kiev in February, and that the Prime Minister plans to visit it before the summit. But the local opposition did not appreciate the sharp change in plans, although they allowed for “wartime”.

On March 21, two Russian nuclear-capable Tu95 strategic bombers flew over the Sea of ​​Japan for more than seven hours. Su-35 and Su-30 warplanes accompanied the bomber flights.

Remember, on January 2, Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida invited Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to the G7 summit in May. The meeting of the leaders of the “Big Seven” is scheduled for May 19-21 in Hiroshima.

On February 24, Fumio Kishida announced that Japan was preparing new G7 sanctions against Russia. During the press conference, he also announced his intention to visit Ukraine.
