Japan will continue sanctions against Russia due to its aggression in Ukraine, as stated by the Japanese Ambassador to Ukraine, Sumi Shigeki, during a visit by the President of Ukraine to the main military hospital, the President’s press service reported.
According to their report, Poroshenko visited the outpatient and endoscopic center for abdominal surgery, where the ambassador of Japan presented the Minister of Defense of Ukraine, Stepan Poltorak, a certificate for a new video endoscope system.
"I wish for the conflict caused by Russian aggression to be resolved as quickly as possible. Japan will continue to support Ukraine’s territorial integrity through sanctions against Russia", Sumi Shigeki said.
He assured that "Japan, together with the G7 members, will also continue to support reform processes which will bring economic prosperity."
"As a result, Japan has paid much attention to medical reforms initiated by the acting Minister of Health, Ulana Suprun, as the Ukrainian health-care system requires support," Sumi Shigeki noted.
