Ukrainian ambassador Sergey Korsunsky "affronted" the people of China and other Asian countries by visiting the Yasukuni Shinto Shrine, "a symbol of Japan's militaristic and colonial past," reads an article in the Chinese newspaper China Daily.
Its authors drew attention to the already deleted post of the Ukrainian embassy in Japan in the social network X saying that Korsunsky visited the Yasukuni Shrine to "pay homage to the martyrs who died for the Japanese nation".
The ambassador was asked to remember that the Yasukuni Shrine keeps the lists of the names of Japanese convicted by the International Military Tribunal for the Far East (1946-1948) and sentenced to the death penalty for participation in war crimes during World War II.
