We urge the immediate withdrawal of Russian troops and solution through dialogue -YWCA of
Japan statement on Russia’s invasion of Ukraine-
(28th February,2022)
The YWCA of Japan strongly protests Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the threat of using
nuclear weapons by Vladimir Putin, President of Russia.
During the Asia-Pacific War, the YWCA of Japan regrettably followed the path to the war of
aggression, without being able to defy the trend of “creating peace by intimidating neighboring
countries” that dominated the Japanese society at the time.
