In its 28th print issue of 2019, published on July 12, the Kyiv Post takes a look at the political, business and cultural ties between Ukraine and Japan in our regular feature “World in Ukraine.” Japan is perhaps Ukraine’s one true friend in the Asian world, supporting sanctions against Russia and helping Ukraine with nearly $2 billion in grants and loans since the 2014 start of the Kremlin’s war that has killed 13,000 people. Moreover, Japanese businesses are engaged in the manufacturing, agriculture and information technology sectors of Ukraine’s economy. This week’s segment is sponsored by Panasonic Ukraine.
