the side of kyiv , journalist takashi hiran told the public about this in an interview with the public. according to him, before that japan still had hope to resolve the territorial dispute with russia, namely the issue of the status of the kuril islands, and therefore tried to maintain ties with vladimir putin, but the full-scale invasion of russia into ukraine put the end of hope for civilians dialogue how japan is changing under the influence of the russo-ukrainian war and how a japanese journalist mastered the ukrainian language our colleague olena rymovska spoke in such a shrill manner let's see how much understanding there is in society regarding this war, you can't compare it with other conflicts from the side of russia and came to ukraine. welcome to our studio. thank you for your time. congratulations. i would like to

start with ukrainian-japanese relations, and during a full-scale invasion of russia, it is often possible to to meet such an adjective as the unprecedented level of japan's support for ukraine in the conditions of this full-scale war, is this not an exaggeration, and what exactly is unprecedented and why for japan ? first of all, it is necessary to remind that the strength of japan has been since 2014 , in 2014, when russia already covered them with glue and traded them japan was the only country in asia that imposed sanctions against russia and supported it for eight years, too, or from the side. japan was quite large, but on the other hand, let's say, it was very careful to stand near you to russia before understanding that they have a task to resolve the issue of a virtual issue in the northern territories

, so it looked like a bit of a double standard, on the one hand, it supported ukraine, because on the other hand, it maintained good relations with russia, in particular with the environment, there is a precedent somewhere relations took place after february 24th, in fact, it can be said that because japan found that relations were already baked and began to support ukraine in an absolute way and to an absolute extent. sanctions against russia, and the deposit is very cosmetic, let's say that it is very how to say it without meaning, the sanction was at least like a sign of solidarity. we also had little importance here, but this time it was really instead of a sanction at the level of other countries and the group

itself in one of your posts on facebook, you drew attention to the fact that after february 24 there was even such a day when the prime minister of japan , mr. kishida, recorded an appeal to the japanese because of the war in ukraine. what is so unusual about this for others again ? after all, in 2014 he was the prime minister physically, the prime minister tried to maintain relations with the included ones, so they made decisions and policies to support ukraine, but this was not visible to the japanese population. and this time, the prime minister - the minister who is still trying to make the public understand why we absolutely support ukraine and even they filmed such a video without the president, let's say because i have never seen such a video and they really clearly said that we should support

ukraine for such a reason now, is it correct? i understand that current sanctions, they are partly painful for the japanese themselves, if the prime minister had to address the japanese. and what does this turn out to be, well, this is growing on all kinds of goods on the japanese market, and the population clearly, uh, really feels, uh, gradually, that the complexity e-e in their lives is growing now, but still many people understand it is because of e-e the government explains why this in this sanction is needed why support is needed for ukraine now e-e what do they mean to the japanese population itself, therefore the understanding of the father-in-law is increasing precisely because of e- such and such meetings of the prime minister, let's say i would like the japanese to provide ukraine after february 24 - these are the data of the japanese red cross society and at the same time

also note that many western media are already paying attention to the fact that japan has opened up to ukrainians who are forced fleeing from war, that is, refugees, even figures are given that, unlike previous years, when japan did not accept people who asked for such an asylum , now japan has opened up. how do you explain to yourself that japan did not go to such a typical step regarding the acceptance of ukrainians , it is difficult to say exactly why she made such a decision. but it is true that japan previously did not accept refugees from different regions of the world , this time it really took a precedent somewhere, such a decision was taken by ukrainians as refugees in this war they are also called anti-vaccination or such-and-such a term, they use the first, for sure, society has a huge understanding of a-a as for this

war, that is, aggression - it cannot be compared with other conflicts and that and that or absolutely evil from russia has come to ukraine and they really are not at the national level of the watchdogs of the suffering people of ukraine and they want to support and this large-scale sympathy and understanding of all the months of the pause for decision-making, let's say the government to japan, in my opinion, ukraine became the first country to which japan provided military aid, but what is meant is not lethal weapons, but various types of aid, for example, for the ukrainian military, such as helmets and body armor, or is it possible that at some stage japan will also go to to provide ukraine with some types of weapons, because no, because well, i hope so, but i think that it is very difficult, because even if it is a decision that

was taken by the japanese government and to provide ukraine with such equipment or what kind of protection for a chemical attack, a chiligraphic attack or drones is a very historic decision for ukraine after the end of world war ii. japan does not accept such a decision, that is, it is really a historic decision for the japanese government, and what do they compare such decisions with, and it is very difficult in fact there was a discussion and before that it is being talked about whether to really support one side of the conflict, that is, the understanding of the needs, but on the other hand, they are not yet used to such a decision, that is, at the moment, weapons and because there was no such decision before, it is a bit thin here this germany after the end of the world war in japan, yes, germany

adopted such a policy of pacifism and is very cautious about everything related to the war. you see how germany reacts to every request to provide weapons. the residents are in a different situation, what is the constitution getting in the way , and in a practical way, in my opinion, it is not very profitable to provide from the side of japan, because it is completely different to go under weapons, with which force does it have a separate training on the territory of japan, eh, when there is an opportunity to use european and american tanks or england and to get japanese weapons and send the military to japan for a few months, i think it is not very profitable, it is better to get funds to buy western weapons well, in fact, ukrainian military personnel, i think that you yourself were convinced of this by the fact that they can learn quickly, even what the western partners doubted, but i want to clarify with you, you

mentioned the constitution of japan, which interferes so of our viewers, what the constitution itself does not prohibit. the bazu constitution is based on the a-a philosophy of pacifism. what was not to use weapons, e-e, military salt as e-e a solution to conflicts and any conflict, and in this sense, i and the legislation that's how it works that's why it's a bit inconvenient to sell weapons, it's known that they recently removed some uh, it's true, but it seems that it's written there that you can sell uh under specific conditions, definitely not in military uh, situations, one more question - it's japanese-russian relations, and in april of this year, japan for the first time for 19 years, she called the kuril islands illegally occupied by russia, is this move by japan somehow related to a certain large-scale invasion of ukraine, everything is connected, first of all, the government realized that there is no point

now, uh, continuing negotiations on a solution territorial issues and from russia and a briefing at least when the beginning of the other side continues the aggression against ukraine to talk with russia it will be a tegardy for the japanese government to make a decision and they will decide that the priority is after all e support of ukraine and not to continue e-e with e-e precise negotiations. therefore, we must say with our names what the state is because it is e . keep silent about the policy regarding the true state of these territories e-e was adopted because they think that if we speak clearly about the state of these islands is will interfere with the negotiations, that is, now he understands that there is no point in continuing these negotiations and it is necessary to change ukraine absolutely price this is absolutely related to whether there are any

fears in japan that russia may pose a threat to japan for example, the same islands that we you mentioned there that russia even conducts some military exercises from time to time without talking about a direct threat, but as far as i know, the ministry of defense also writes in much harsher terms about, let's say, risks on the part of russia, that is, we need to be much more careful, and before we called russia a potential friendly country. japan's books are just that. let's put it this way, the report in which the threats are described is for the first time a separate section devoted to the russian-ukrainian war .

or for the region at the expert level and began to discuss this issue, but at the government level they are still cautious because there could potentially be such a threat. the aras do not yet see a specific threat. if i read the diplomatic language correctly from the excerpts in english, it was about what if russia wins in ukraine this can give it was not written directly it can give a kind of example to china in relation to taiwan and as i understand it, japan is very afraid that there may really be some kind of fighting between china and ivan actions primarily japan supports ukraine or because it is a violation of the a-a current world e-e world order, i.e. the order is based on a-a coastal law, that is, a violation of the charter o any other rules e-e by which we live in this world, i.e. e a big country can't

attack, isn't there an advantage in the international arena, and a big country is a small country? does a small country have all the same sovereign rights, and if russia wins, theoretically , then this order will break? the country that should receive it protection from local law is the same. yes, taiwan is a log with the mainland of china, the military is less powerful below, let’s say that it is necessary to preserve local law, that is, this current world order, and this japanese government, a japanese expert clearly understands here that it is impossible to allow a victory, a victory russia and against ukraine are brought into this understanding and er support er even at the theoretical level er

information in particular, business ties and trade ties are preserved, if i understand correctly, japan in particular buys energy carriers from russia, now there is a lot of talk about the fact that europe should abandon russian energy carriers in these conditions, yes when energy carriers actually turned into weapons, what between japan and russia a review of these relations is underway. so, the japanese government has made a decision to gradually reduce the import of coal and oil from russia, this is already together with the logical countries that are in europe themselves regarding gas, so such a decision has not yet been made and they constantly discuss whether or not what should be done on this issue, a part of society will support the list , he said from the gas from russia, but some

still, well, in particular, the economic circle, still, i think that if there is a fight, we will it is an advantage for the chinese or other countries that will receive our share of this benefit. there is not a completely clear understanding in society. that is why there has not been such a decision so far. well, separately, of course, i want to talk about your ukrainian language, because i objectively understand that our the audience has this is a question. how did you learn ukrainian under what circumstances? this is a long story in ukraine for more than 10 years, almost 13, i think 13 years. well, i wanted to learn the ukrainian language as a child. i can imagine that back then, probably not much was known about ukraine in japan when we were there. as a child, through the window here, i will get to know ukraine, did i learn about the existence of ukraine, eh. about which i have never heard

before, eh, yes, i am curious about this, why is it such a broken country, with its history, language, clitoris, tradition , industry, eh, i have never heard eh, this became my mystery about ukraine and began to look for information eh where can you learn more about ukraine from the university in tokyo eh then i entered there in order to study the ukrainian language and there is one eh professor who researched the ukrainian language girls a little but still it is not it was a specialty and an elective in which there was medicine once a week. well, i'm a shepherd of the ukrainian language. i know that it and the work are related to ukraine , but somehow i got the feeling that i want to continue this business with ukraine. more job ad for the position of a

kidnapper of japanese emotion in lviv , ivan franko lviv national university, i tried the job, i thought i would live somewhere there for one or two years, but when i started to live, it became much more interesting than what i had imagined, and i realized that i had to continue and hmm, i practiced in life at work i still want to continue my knowledge of the ukrainian language and continue to do various things and entered a sanatorium to get a higher education. then i want to try my knowledge at the embassy of japan in ukraine in kyiv this is how it happened. you thought that you would be delayed for a year or two, but now you have been in kyiv for more than 10 years, moreover, after february 24, you stayed in ukraine, er, you did not plan to return to japan, i hesitated because my parents, who know much less about the situation in ukraine and there is a

lot of talk about this every day, because putin is crazy, can he imagine, can he launch a nuclear bomb? well , first of all, they were scared that i didn't have time to leave there, not at the border, there was a huge queue. and i had a job. and huge demand from the japanese side society you see regarding the information of this er aggression. it was in russia. i wrote news every day from morning until night, and where is the time to leave there a second time, after all, i have a patriarchal barrier er, some money than a protest, let's say he doesn't want to leave ukraine when my road is at the front, or at least they say that they will fight to the end and defend their own country, their cities, their family, and i have the right to leave. ukraine and then i can't, well, i realized that i'm not, then i won't be able to say that i am

saw this war to the end i want to see victory as first of all with my friends and as another well this war will continue and how it will end as finished ukraine will win how can we uh then clean up together at the end of this war and is it true that you you also study crimean tatar and how successful you are. well, you can communicate at a basic level only in crimean tatar. we have to spend an hour and a half constantly in crimean tatar, which is more difficult for you to learn ukrainian or crimean tatar equally, but this different reasons. because i would like to study the crimean tatar language, there is not much lack of educational materials, and ukrainian for a ukrainian girl , there are still all kinds of teachers,

savniks, textbooks, so if you have a desire, then your father can start, and it is very difficult to study the crimean-tatar language because we need to find textbooks and there are none, it is desirable her circumstances . well, i want to express my admiration for the fact that you speak ukrainian, the fact that she is studying roman tatar, thank you very early for we will bind up this conversation, we will bind up, we will defeat the bristles of the news, together we are strong because of the war started by russia with the support of belarus, the ukrainians planned the hall fell silent and the russian and belarusian judokas chose the position of sport outside of politics, the position of neutrality - this is direct support for the war in ukraine and the killing of ukrainians by

ukrainians the halls fell silent, however, we sportsmen of the whole world should not be silent, i call on everyone to support the boycott of russian and belarusian national and team athletes, support ukraine on the sports front, you are the voice of democracy, silence kills with the support of the ministry of youth and sports of ukraine. this is a story about steel nerves, steel will and character hardened in the sacred fire. in my hands and in

the bodies of my enemies in the voice that promises us victory , together we make this world stronger ukrainians, a nation of steel people, we are warriors, not idlers , and our work is righteous, holy, god, because who cares what are we for independence? that's why it's so difficult for us because of kateryna osadchai's project to search for the missing . tomorrow at 9:30 p.m., war stories that do not

leave anyone indifferent, there was chaos, fighting, shelling, my best friend, who ended up under occupation in gostomel . she is not alive brother from kharkiv oblast in russian captivity my brother was taken away by the russian military but their relatives believe that they will meet again
