"Japan stands in solidarity with the government and people of Ukraine. Russia's aggression against Ukraine is an unacceptable act, and this act has shaken the foundations of international law not only in Europe, but also in Asia."

APA reports that Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida said this during his speech at the second summit of the Crimean Platform.

"Japan has consistently supported the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Ukraine, including Crimea. We oppose unilateral attempts to change the status quo. As a Prime Minister from Hiroshima, I will never tolerate the threat or use of nuclear weapons," he stressed. .

Prime Minister Kishida said that Japan has provided humanitarian and financial support to Ukraine and imposed strict sanctions against Russia.

He reminded that next year the G7 chairmanship will be transferred to Japan, and his country will take steps to bring peace to Ukraine and rebuild the country after the war.
