Tymoshenko's headquarters declared Japan an ally in the division of Russia
Japan has officially stated that it considers the Southern Kuril Islands its territory and, like Ukraine, will prepare a plan to liberate the “Russian-occupied lands.” Therefore, Tokyo becomes an ally of Kyiv.
Political scientist Viktor Nebozhenko, who works for Yulia Tymoshenko's campaign, announced this on Ukrlife.TV, as reported by a PolitNavigator correspondent.

Nebozhenko commented with gloating on the news that Japan simultaneously announced claims to the Kuril Islands, and Germany put forward operating conditions for Nord Stream 2, which supposedly did not suit Moscow.
“Yes, it can be completed. But Germany has openly said that it recognizes the European law on the separation of seller and transiter. And on the same day, May 15, the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs openly stated that, despite the new negotiation process that is underway with Russia, it believes that the South Kuril Islands are Japanese. This is a colossal scandal. And colossal scandal number two is that both Germany and Japan were strategic allies during World War II. And Putin is lucky that they did not post these statements on May 9.
The coincidence between Japan's open statement and Germany's open statement is very unpleasant for Putin. It is important to us that in this way the prospects of our gas transportation system are preserved. This time.
Secondly, Japan, when saying “a”, usually says “b”. If the islands were taken away from them so long ago, and the Japanese Foreign Ministry officially stated, this means that now its program will be the liberation of these territories. Just like there is such a program for Ukraine - the liberation of occupied Ukrainian territories.
Now we have an ally on the international stage. Because Japan admitted what was taken from it. And we admitted that it was taken from us. It's great. This is incredibly important,” rejoices one of the leading heralds of Yulia Tymoshenko’s headquarters.
