Solution Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihide Sugi not going to Vladivostok for the Eastern Economic Forum (EEF) due to a coronavirus pandemic is a serious concern for many people in the rising sun.
They expressed their claims to the government and its head in the comments of Yahoo News Japan. They first described what was happening as another incompetent step in Tokyo.
One user noted that it made no sense in Sugi's policy to fight the pandemic in Japan. Therefore, it would be better for him to go to Russia.
Another critic stressed that the current prime minister has no diplomatic talent and that his trips abroad are useless.
Russia is said to have great potential “in terms of Japan's security problems” and its economic interests. The people of Japan generally consider the Russian Federation to be more attractive to Tokyo than the United States. Another user called Japan an “American vassal.”
Suga has been criticized by Japanese Internet users for his actions as Prime Minister. It thus spreads the “slow” reaction of the authorities to the visit of Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin to Iturup, which is part of the Kuril Islands. Tokyo considers this island, as well as Kunashir, Shikotan and Habomai, to be its “northern territory”.
