Japan and Russia

Day 733, 08:59 Published in Japan USA by Dokomo

For over a year now, Japan and Russia have been allied through PEACE. For the past few months we have continued that alliance through our MPP. And with Russia leaving PEACE I chose to continue that MPP to show our commitment to the defense of our allies.

That, however, is the key word. The defense of our allies. What Russia has done today flies in the very face of our Righteous Nation policies. A close friend to many in Japan, China has done nothing to warrant the aggression that it now face. While not as formal as our relations with Russia, people in Japan know and respect their counterparts in China and we maintain deep bonds with them.

Thus, I am ordering our military to follow our Righteous Nation and act in defense of China, a good friend and ally. The Japanese Imperial Navy has set sail for Beijing Harbor and our Airborne Infantry will be dropping into Inner Mongolia soon. I remain committed to the defense of Russian territory, but stand in opposition to their advances in both China and North Korea. It is my dearest hope that a peaceful settlement will be reached soon.

On a side note, Today's virtue of Bushido is Yuuki - Courage



Yuuki has two kanji. The first is yuu, which means courageous, with the important component of chikara, the symbol for strength.

The second kanji is ki or energy.
