Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida is making a surprise trip to Ukraine on Tuesday to meet Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky – a day after Chinese leader Xi Jinping met his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin in Moscow.
Kishida has already left India, where he met with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, and is now on his way to Ukraine, according to Japanese public broadcaster NHK.
His trip is the first time a Japanese prime minister has visited a country or region with ongoing fighting since World War II, NHK reported. It will also be the first visit to Ukraine by an Asian member of the G7 grouping and the first by a US ally in the region.
The dual visits by Kishida and Xi underscore deep divisions in northeast Asia toward the war in Ukraine, with Japan pledging substantial aid for Kyiv, while China remains a lone voice supporting an increasingly isolated Putin – now a global pariah and suspected war criminal.

China Russia v Japan and Ukraine. Interesting how the same alliances are popping up.
Not surprising given China this week
good times
Matthew 24:6 - You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. 7 Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are the beginning of birth pains.
This visit is all about China.
Japan takes orders from new Nazi’s leader Joe Biden.
That is why the visit is being made...
Democrats love wars because it pays off big for them and the economy.
Lets see, WWII , WWI, Vietnam, Afghanistan.
Its the money stupid....
Xi quietly and secretly told Putin that the world is against him.
Prime Minister Kishida is going to deliver the same message in possibly stronger terms. He has the word of India that has the same message
The message from the world that Putin is ignoring is that War Crimes that have now escalated into Crimes Against Humanity will not be tolerated
You are sounding conspiratorial. This doesn’t feel like winning does it?
Timothy Snyder on how putin/russia the aggressor, plays the victim:
“Claiming to be the victim when you are in fact the aggressor is not a defense. It is actually part of the crime. Hate speech directed against Ukrainians is not part of the defense of the Russian Federation or its citizens. It is an element of the crimes that Russian citizens are committing on Ukrainian territory. In this sense, in calling this session, the Russian state has found a new way to confess to war crimes. Thank you for your attention.”

Japan is deferential, but takes orders from no one.
The message was clearly, “if you get involved, we get involved and will re-arm.”
Japan is realizing that America is weak and compromised by China. McConnell, Biden’s, Romney are all bought and paid for with Chinese money.
It knows it will have to be strong, potentially by itself or with South Korea, India, and a handful of others.
You realize that the US has actually threatened the ICC in the past, don't you, bert?
In 2002, the U.S. Congress passed the American Service-Members' Protection Act (ASPA), which contained a number of provisions, including authorization of the President to "use all means necessary and appropriate to bring about the release of any U.S. or allied personnel being detained by, on behalf of, or at the request of the International Criminal Court", and also prohibitions on the United States providing military aid to countries which had ratified the treaty establishing the court.
Donald Trump on the ICC:
So the United States took the only responsible course: We withdrew from the Human Rights Council, and we will not return until real reform is enacted. For similar reasons, the United States will provide no support in recognition to the International Criminal Court. As far as America is concerned, the ICC has no jurisdiction, no legitimacy, and no authority. The ICC claims near-universal jurisdiction over the citizens of every country, violating all principles of justice, fairness, and due process. We will never surrender America’s sovereignty to an unelected, unaccountable, global bureaucracy.
I think it would be appropriate for the Russian Federation to threaten the ICC and its lawpuppets in the same manner that the US did.
and you Russian shills are sounding paranoid
that’s not winning
China paid hundreds of millions to the Biden family.
China is the country most benefiting from the war in Ukraine.
In 2002, the U.S. Congress passed the American Service-Members' Protection Act (ASPA), which contained a number of provisions, including authorization of the President to "use all means necessary and appropriate to bring about the release of any U.S. or allied personnel being detained by, on behalf of, or at the request of the International Criminal Court", and also prohibitions on the United States providing military aid to countries which had ratified the treaty establishing the court.
Chrystia's little mutt - off his mostress's leash again.
Why not? Zelenskyy is really the leader of the western world today. He calls the shots and the USA Obeys. Billions are just a phone call away and soon, Millions of American and Polish Troops, joined by all of America’s satraps, will soon be marching into the battle. The list of people going to Kiev is a list of all we control. Zelenskyy will win the Nobel Peace Prize and be sainted by the New Catholic Church. Has the Pope made the pilgrimage to Kiev to kiss his ring yet?
