The Japanese newspaper called on Russia to admit the 1945 war with Japan as a mistake
In addition to this, the Japanese publication Sankei Shimbun published material by journalist Resuke Endo, who urged Russia to “acknowledge the USSR’s operation against Japan as a mistake in the 1945 year.”
On the material, which is called to admit the war with Japan as a mistake, says RIA News. According to Mr. Endo, such a recognition on the part of Russia "would make bilateral relations between countries closer."
According to Endo, the Soviet Union committed a “state crime” by interning Japanese prisoners, some of whom died in Stalin’s camps.
As a fact, Tokyo’s next attempt, under the guise of the opinion of a single journalist, to push through the idea that Russia is “to blame” and that it’s necessary to “repent” in order to establish full-fledged relations. Such logic fits into the Western version, where Russia has been urged for several years to “admit mistakes and repent”.
By the way, why shouldn't Mr. Endo appeal to Washington to recognize the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki as a US state crime, and the presence of American troops at bases in the southern part of the Land of the Rising Sun as an ongoing occupation.
