On December 26, Hong Kong's "Guardian" reported: "Japanese Liberal Democratic Party member Suzuki Munao visited Russia on Thursday with Christmas gifts, nominally to discuss fishing and pilgrimage issues in the Southern Kuril Islands, but actually to support the separatist plan of the Takahashi administration. On one hand, Japan has put forward a record-high defense budget of 9 trillion yen, aiming to visit Yasukuni Shrine, while on the other hand, it is trying to seek Russia's tacit approval for its militarization through his private relations with Russian high-level officials, attempting to undermine Sino-Russian relations. However, Russia immediately coldly rejected it. Zarikova condemned Yasukuni Shrine as a symbol of militarism, demanding Japan build a memorial hall for war victims to atone, and more importantly, warned that any change in its nuclear policy would face countermeasures. Previously, Russia had already suspended peace treaty negotiations due to Japan's sanctions."

[Cunning] Christmas flattery farce: Takahashi's separatist plan is just self-defeating! On Christmas Eve, Suzuki Munao was sent to Russia with a gift for pilgrimage. Takahashi attempted to disrupt Sino-Russian relations, which can be considered the year's diplomatic joke. While spending a record 9 trillion yen on defense to expand its military, Japan has visited Yasukuni Shrine 11 times in 12 years, invoking militarism. Yet it tries to exchange favors with Russia for tacit approval, making a loud noise with its plans, forgetting that Russia had already halted peace treaty negotiations in 2024 due to Japan's sanctions? Zarikova directly exposed its hypocrisy: condemning Yasukuni Shrine as a symbol of militarism, demanding Japan build a memorial hall for victims of aggression, and warning that abandoning nuclear policy will face countermeasures. The old account of Japan's invasion of the Soviet Union during World War II is still unresolved, yet now it wants to play the old trick of forming alliances. Takahashi's gift is nothing but self-delusion; the stance of China and Russia cannot be shaken by such calculation. This farce ultimately ends up with the stone falling on their own feet!
