“Through diplomatic channels, including the delivery of a relevant note by the Ministry, we have issued a stern warning to Japan that the deployment of U.S.-made medium-range missiles on its relevant territory is unacceptable, regardless of the pretext, whether on a permanent, temporary, or other basis,” she noted.
Meanwhile, the spokesperson urged the Japanese government led by Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi to “return to the foundations on which Japan’s post-war peaceful development is built.”
“These foundations are enshrined in the outcomes of World War II — foundations that, unfortunately, as we are once again compelled to note, have not yet been fully acknowledged by Japan,” she said.
