🇷🇺🇯🇵 JAPANESE AMBASSADOR LASTS 25 MINUTES INSIDE RUSSIAN FOREIGN MINISTRY AFTER BEING CALLED OUT BY LAVROV
Japan’s Ambassador to Russia Akira Muto has left the Russian Foreign Ministry after being summoned over Tokyo’s protests regarding President Putin’s visit to Iturup in the Kuril Islands.
The meeting lasted roughly 25 minutes.
Muto ran away without making any comments to reporters.
The ambassador had initially failed to appear after being summoned and said he wasn’t feeling well. Maria Zakharova joked yesterday that following Lavrov’s public remarks, Muto had “suddenly felt much better.” đź¤đź¤
