Beijing will be influenced, said the Secretary General of the Cabinet of Council of Japan Hirokazu Matsuno at a briefing, answering the question of increasing Russian oil exports to China.
He noted that Japan will cooperate with the G7 countries over increasing pressure on Russia. “We will further strengthen the diplomatic and economic pressure on Russia so that there are no laser [for bypass] sanctions,” Matsuno quoted Matsuno Komsomolets.
According to him, Japan’s cooperation with the countries of the Seven in this direction will be “cramped”.
