Manu Datta comments

A typical hack job article against Putin coming out of western media echo chamber.

of course if your father was part of propoganda office of japanese imperial army :)

Going by logic of they commentators here ...didn't nuclear bombs were used 60 years back why every year japanese people do horse and pony show to play victimhood when they were the main aggressors in ww2 ? history is remembered for certain reasons you cannot remember your victimhood forever and deny others ?

only marcelito makes sense...this "aid" is a sham to channel back money to moribund Japanese companies like Mitsubishi

gaffe or Freudian slip?

It is not lack of apologies it is abundance of denial and typical Japanese underhanded apologies which infuriates neighbors.

really? I thought just a week he was totally sympathetic and offering okinawan women so american GIs can "release" their pent up energies? what happened? Even in Singapore/Malaysia where I reside their are women tell horrific tales of what Japanese did ..I think Japan he squandering whatever good will they have earned by choosing these monkeys as their leaders

I think he says what many people believe in Japan. I stayed in Japan for few years and was surprised almost half the Japanese believe Japan did nothing wrong in WW2 and all comfort women were prostitutes anyways. He is just saying what his constituency believe in anyways?

After 20 years of slow collapsing economy Japan will give emerging Asia gift of Asian Prosperity Zone again. Shame on Japan and Japanese people for being such warmongers. I am never buying anything Japanese again.

China was the only country which came to India not to loot and plunder like Islamic Arabs, British, Portuguese and French, but to gain knowledge and study culture. There are many instance in recorded history when valuable merchandise was dumped to protect books form India by Chinese travelers. I hope we can be friends again and don't fall into divide and rule policy of barbaric loot and slavery based cultures of West and Japan.
