Russia on Japan’s Sanctions: “Look for Problems Inside Yourselves, Not in Russia” | RU-EN

On September 18, 2025, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova condemned Japan’s 26th package of sanctions against Russia. She argued that Tokyo, entangled in its domestic political crisis, is sacrificing bilateral relations under external pressure while cynically justifying sanctions with the “need for peace in Ukraine.”

Zakharova stressed that unlawful sanctions never become a “lifeline” but instead harm the economy of the country imposing them. She warned that Russia will continue to respond with thought-out and adequate countermeasures, including asymmetrical steps, based on national interests.

  1. Japan has never truly apologized for what they did to the chinese in WW2.
    Today it is a country without honor, with brothels at every corner and CP on TV every day…

  2. To all the victims of Russian propaganda who watch this crap – Russia invaded Germany in 1914, Poland in 1920, invaded Poland which Germany in 1939 thus starting WW2, invaded Finland in 1939, seized territory from Romania, seized Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia in 1940, executed 22 thousand Polish citizens at Katyn, deported 230,000 native Crimeans, killed millions of Ukrainians during the Holodomor, killed millions of their own people, instigated communist revolutions across the globe which led to the deaths of over 40 million in China and millions more in Korea, Vietnam and Cambodia, invaded Afghanistan, shot down civilian airliners etc, etc

  3. Japan lost it soul after the nuclear disaster when they suffered, so we all can understand why they would take such step to please their master they don't want another nuclear disaster but they should be careful not to step on its neighbor because it would be worst

  4. How Japan shames it’s history, forsaking it’s true fiends for the US Mafia State who dropped two nuclear bombs on two of its cities, how the mighty have fallen,

  7. Very well said❕☑💯👍 ✨💫
    Japan could have been so much better and not have the mounting problems that they are having over the decades by being USA's servant. They need to bring back the honour that they had long ago and improve the lives of their overworked people who don't deserve this continuous mess that they are kept in!
    And we have that kind of situation being spread even in the Western world the last couple of decades.
