Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman Zakharova said at a regular press conference on the 20th that Japan launched a war of aggression against foreign countries during World War II and has refused to acknowledge the results of World War II for decades. The Russian side called on Japan to fully recognize the results of World War II and stop glorifying the history of aggression. In response to questions from Xinhua News Agency reporters, Zakharova said that on the 81st anniversary of Japan's announcement of its unconditional surrender, the Japanese government did not publicly acknowledge the fact that it had launched an aggression in the Asia-Pacific region, did not sincerely apologize to the victims in neighboring countries, and did not abide by the peace provisions of its own constitution. Instead, it continued to advance the “re-militarization” route and increasingly slipped into a dangerous abyss. Zakharova said that Japan's attempts to “whitewash” its own wartime crimes, push for amendments to the Peace Constitution, and rediscuss the “Three Non-Nuclear Principles” are all carried out in the context of distorting historical facts. Zakharova said that Japanese Prime Minister Takaichi Sanae's speech at the “National War Veterans Memorial Ceremony”, acts such as offering sacrifices to Yasukuni Shrine, and visits by many political figures, including Japan's Minister of Defense, to Yasukuni Shrine are all signs of pursuing a “re-militarization” route.
