Zakharova warned of a harsh response from the Russian Federation in case Japan supplies weapons to the Armed Forces of Ukraine

Russia will impose harsh retaliatory measures if the Japanese authorities decide to supply their weapons to Ukraine to continue the military conflict. This was announced on March 25 by the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova.

The diplomat noted that such a move by Tokyo would further delay the prospect of a peaceful settlement.

"We would like to warn you once again that any attempts by the Japanese leadership to supply lethal weapons and military equipment to the Kiev regime will be perceived by the Russian Federation as hostile actions towards our country. They will inevitably be followed by harsh retaliatory measures," Zakharova said at a briefing.

Also on February 21, Zakharova pointed out that Seoul's possible participation in pumping weapons to the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) delays the prospects for resolving the Ukrainian conflict and will force Russia to take retaliatory measures. The diplomat pointed out that such a decision by the Korean authorities would cause irreparable damage to relations between the two states.
