Details: Zelensky noted that on Saturday he met with the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Japan, who is visiting Ukraine. He called it symbolic that this is the first foreign visit of a Japanese minister after the appointment of the new Japanese government.
The President announced a new package of support from Japan and added that since the beginning of the full-scale war, Japan’s support to Ukraine has already amounted to 12 billion dollars.
Direct speech: “We also discussed the fact that North Korea has now become an accomplice of Russia and is helping Putin in this criminal war. I informed about the activity of the North Korean military in Kurshchyna, about all the threats from cooperation between Pyongyang and Moscow.
Russia is teaching North Korea modern warfare, and this could cause much wider destabilization. Together with all our other partners, we must counteract this.”
Details: Zelenskyi also discussed with the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Japan the strengthening of sanctions against Russia, Ukraine’s economic cooperation with Japan, reconstruction and “how to bring a just peace closer.”
“We are also preparing for a conversation with the new Prime Minister of Japan,” Zelenskyy added.
