Shoyigu: Japan is sacrificing national interests to please the United States

Moscow time November 13, 2025, Sergei Shoigu, Secretary of the Russian Federation Security Council, said in an interview with the Russian State News Agency:

Japan is sacrificing its own national interests to please the United States, but it is seeking funds with admirable perseverance to strengthen militarization. Some countries in the Asia-Pacific region cannot be called allies of the United States; I will not call them allies of the United States because "alliance" involves equal cooperation. Here, we have only witnessed a vassal relationship.
