Putin: ’Relationship with Japan is limited to judo’
ロシア、プーチン大統領：「こんにちは
Russia, President Putin: ”Hello
In March, the Russian government designated Japan as an ”unfriendly country,” but President Putin jokingly said that his relationship with Japan was ”only judo.”
President Putin is known as a ”master” of judo, starting at the age of 13, and during his visits to Japan in 2000 and 2016, he visited the Kodokan, the headquarters of judo.
He has also served as the honorary president of the International Judo Federation since 2008, but his qualification as honorary president was revoked in February following the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
