“The Japanese minister expressed his country's willingness to continue supporting Ukraine and outlined a plan for an additional supply of Self-Defense Force vehicles,” the report says.
Nakatani also condemned Russia's expanded military cooperation with China and North Korea as it.
It is not specified what kind of equipment the Japanese side intends to transfer, but earlier Tokyo, according to various sources, sent to Kyiv about 100 vehicles from the Self-Defense Forces, including military trucks.
