At the same time, as Japanese media notes, the draft statement makes no mention of the "aggression" and the Japanese "colonial order" established in the occupied countries during the Second World War. These terms had been central in the parliamentary statement issued in connection with the 50th anniversary of the Victory Day, note the media.
