WorldJapan to trial purchase Ukrainian-made drones
Japan plans to make a trial purchase of drones from Ukrainian defense company SkyFall and assess their performance, former Defense Minister Itsunori Onodera said in Kyiv. Japan is also considering introducing them into the Self-Defense Forces. A Chinese researcher criticized the move as a break with Japan’s policy against exporting military equipment to countries at war, warning it could fuel an arms race and undermine Japan’s peaceful image. Russian President Vladimir Putin also expressed concern about Japan’s “militarization.”
