[@davidmurray5399]

The film accurately displays one of the problems that Japanese carriers faced when under air attack. The anti-aircraft positions were below the level of the flight deck, making it difficult if not impossible to fire beyond a rather tight firing arc. As they had never been subject to air attacks before, it was a problem, along with outdated fire controls and too few anti-aircraft assets, that the IJN hadn't had to deal with before.

Habrían debido llevar una fuerza de invasión y abastecerla, Japón en ese momento iniciaba la guerra y sus fuerza ya estaban sobre exigidas, Hawaii esta realmente lejos de los otros teatros de operaciones, el ataque realmente fue muy intrépido, impensado, pero muy riesgoso, creo que el error estuvo en no terminar el ataque, los depósitos de combustible, los submarinos (estaban todos alineados y no sufrieron daños) que después serían devastadores, y los talleres de reparación. Eso el Almirante Yamamoto lo tenia claro, pero el Almirante Nagumo estaba al mando operativo y creo se equivoco, claro eso es fácil verlo y decirlo ahora, con toda la información que tenemos, pero hay que intentar ponerse en su lugar, colo debe haber sido estar en el puente de mando con esa gigantesca responsabilidad, el no sabía ni remotamente las cosas que ahora nosotros conocemos.

When this movie (Storm Over the Pacific) was produced in 1960, only 15 years had passed since the end of World War II, and many staffs had experienced Pacific War directly. I guess they were nearly killed in action or they might lose their beloved ones. Therefore, they produced this movie sincerely in order to appeal the significance of peace and human lives. That`s why this Japanese movie is impressive if compared with Hollywood motion pictures.

Imperial Japanese Navy pilots at that time were the best trained, most experienced, naval aviators in the world; their selection and training was the most rigorous. It was later that combat fatigue, attrition, increasingly outdated aircraft and the inability of the program to replace casualties wore down the force. So, too, US Navy aviators gained skill, combat experience, tactics and higher performance aircraft.

[@mackenshaw8169]

The Japanese had better planes and doctrine but the Royal Navy's Fleet Air Arm had the operational experience of Taranto by that time.

[@tavariskaiser6742]

IJN pilots were essentially the aerial Navy Seals of their day, comprised of the most physically, mentally, spiritually, and militarily capable men; however, acquiring these aviators was a prohibitively painstaking and elitist process. First, talented young boys or sailors (including NCOs) would enroll in the program, but out of the thousands (2,000-4,000) of submissions, only 100-200 would pass the screening and evaluation. Then, these 'lucky' recruits would need to survive basic training, which was extremely demanding, both physically and mentally. Training at this stage consisted of swimming (always in cold water), ceaseless lung-bursting calisthenics, martial arts (kendo, sumo, and other jitsu), jogging, rowing (regardless of weather and time of the day), acrobatics, and gymnastics. Recruits were expected to always exert themselves; they always run, never walk. In addition, training also included mathematics, science, engineering, reading, and writing. Recruits needed to maintain a certain grade, or they would be immediately expelled. Once basic training concluded, there was flight training, which lasted an entire year. If you think training wasn't hard enough, there was the constant punishment and humiliation. Although it wasn't nothing new throughout every branch of the Imperial Japanese military, savage beatings, hazing, and widespread sadism during training was commonplace and [sadly] accepted. Instructors, veterans, and officers would administer such brutality among recruits willy nilly for every kind of offense, real or imagined; it was to condition aviators to ignore pain without crying or complaining, all the while obeying orders without any hesitation or doubt. For example, recruits would be smacked on their bottom; kicked and punched in the middle of sleeping; threatened with expulsion if they failed during class, especially martial arts training. If you didn't succeed or win, you were immediately expelled ... even if you were extremely proficient, intelligent, or talented everywhere else! If you made a slight mistake on something, you were expelled. If you were second late, you were beaten within an inch of your life. The saddest thing of all, however, recruits would rather endure the humiliation and brutality than be expelled - it was irreversibly shameful if you failed or quit. If you managed to survive all that, which is one or two years of training, congratulations - you became an IJN pilot!

[@scottloar]

@@tavariskaiser6742 All true. This rigor is recounted in Ian W. Toll's masterpiece in the three volumes comprising his Pacific war trilogy.

[@jaykaufman9782]

@@tavariskaiser6742 I've read the brutality of the IJA was in large part a result of the savagery they suffered at the hands of their own officers, NCOs, and trainers. The Russian Army is also infamous for the abuse sergeants inflict on recruits. They use them as slaves, and even blackmail their families by threatening physical abuse and even murder. There's a support group in St. Petersburg called something like "mothers of murdered soldiers." I'm sure the mass murders being reported in Ukraine is a product of this institutionalized sadism, as the Ukrainian Army liberates towns only to find scores or hundreds of murdered civilian men.

[@steeltrap3800]

WITHOUT killing the USN Carriers, the surprise attack on Pearl Harbour, while technically impressively, was arguably THE GREATEST BLUNDER the Empire of Japan could have committed. The USN's BB fleet was obsolete and fuel hungry. There's NO way they could've projected force effectively without the USN CVs. Had they in fact been sunk while at sea, their losses would've been total vs most of them being refloated, modernised (somewhat) and used as bombardment vessels. They were very useful for that, as 14" naval rifles are still very powerful weapons vs land targets while the ships' deficiencies, especially speed, weren't relevant once air superiority is gained. Meanwhile, it solved ANY potentially tricky political questions of how to get the USA enthused about fighting Japan across the vast distances of the Pacific, bearing in mind the USA's general isolationist mood up to 1941. Thus it didn't achieve ANYTHING of importance OTHER than instantly making the vast, vast majority of USA's citizens suddenly VERY determined to see vengeance delivered on Japan for their 'infamous attack'. I've always wondered why Yamamoto was so lionised when this MOST important action was categorically a failure, as were future, overly complicated schemes, culminating in the disaster of Midway. Sure, he didn't want war as he'd studied in the USA, and the air arm of the IJN was by far the strongest and best trained in the world. But in assessing how those were used? That's a different matter as I see it. I've read all sorts of naval warfare tracts over 40 years so I'm well aware of hindsight being 20/20, and the truly ASTOUNDING amount of luck on the side of the USN at Midway, so I'm not at all saying what happened was inevitable. What I AM saying is I've always found it utterly bizarre that, given the significance of destroying the USN's carriers in the Pearl Harbour attack was not at all lost on Yamamoto, why there was NO attempt (to the best of my knowledge) to confirm they WERE IN HARBOUR BEFORE launching the attack. It's such an irrevocable act that you'd think you'd want to make sure you primary targets, indeed arguably the main reason for taking the risk at all, were present. WITHOUT them, it hardly matters what else you do. Even if they WERE there, the USN still had just as many CVs they could call on, so it's not as though sinking them would've removed all threat from the USN carriers. It would, of course, have done a LOT to further the war plan of grabbing territory then daring the USN to try to come across the vast expanses of oceans. Which makes not being certain they were there all the more astounding as I see it. Not that I'm complaining, the Japan of that period was an odious State. Oh well, I'm sure people can tell me where and why they disagree, which is much of the fun of engaging in these sorts of discussions. Cheers

[@Brooklyn-rj3np]

[@fluffy1931]

fyi the USN never planned on using battleships for use with their aircraft carrier task forces. The fact that battleships obsolete or modern could not keep up with the speed of the aircraft carrier was already proven & fact before ww2. Even IJN never ( including the Pearl Harbor attack never attached battleships to the aircraft carriers.)

[@andrewrei6106]

It is true that Yamamoto didn't know that the US carriers weren't in port at Pearl Harbor on 7 December, 1941, until the pilots were asked whether they saw them...Yamamoto had asked where the "priority targets" were and found out they weren't there. That's why, by Midway, it was decided that Operation K would be conducted to see if the US carriers were out to sea or at Pearl. But, since USN intelligence knew about the whole plan, Nimitz ordered ships there to stop the scout planes from refueling and going on to Pearl. Hence, the surprise being on the American side instead of with the IJN.

[@f430ferrari5]

@@fluffy1931 keeping up with the carriers has nothing to do with it and is a false statement to being with. The Kongo class battleships could to 30 knots. Carrier Kaga 28.5 knots. The US Naval War College stated had the IJN used their powerful Main Force then they should have defeated the Americans at Midway. Further analysis showed the IJN vessels were out of position. The surface ships were not in close enough range to help other vessels out. It was clearly evident that the surface ships should have been in front and battleships shell Midway. Carriers provide CAP and better utilization of plan mixture and additional carriers was key. The IJN has 9 carriers available and really only made use of 4 and all 4 were not even close to capacity.

In Vietnam, which returned to French colonial rule, 700 to 800 Japanese soldiers remained and weapons such as aircraft and tanks were left behind. Kwangai Army Junior High School was established in 1946 during the Vietnam Independence War. At some military schools, military education was conducted by former Japanese Army officers and non-commissioned officers. Some of the former Japanese soldiers who died in the Vietnam Independence War have been honored at the Martyr's Cemetery. Some Japanese soldiers who returned to Japan were later awarded a medal by Vietnam. In addition, we will continue to maintain friendly relations between the two countries by establishing organizations such as the Japan-Vietnam Trade Association and the Japan-Vietnam Friendship Association.

As a Japanese national, I`m surprised that Japanese soldiers played a pivotal role in the Vietnam Independence War like what other Japanese soldiers did in Indonesia.

Operation Ichi-Go is an operation conducted by the Japanese Army on the Chinese mainland from April 17th to December 10th, 1944 during the Sino-Japanese War. It was the last major offensive of the Japanese Army, which caused the National Revolutionary Army to be hit hard and affected during the Chinese Civil War. However, on the other hand, the United States is also mediating the conclusion of the Double Tenth Agreement with Chiang Kai-shek in order to avoid a civil war. According to a study by Barbara W. Tuchman, the results of this operation had a more significant impact on the subsequent war situation than the Japanese had imagined, and had a decisive impact on Japan's fate. According to it, Franklin Roosevelt has consistently strongly trusted and supported Chiang Kai-shek since the beginning of the war, and encouraged him in the war against Japan so that he would not drop out of the Allies in a single peace with Japan during the Cairo Conference. However, he said that he changed his mind because the front of Chiang Kai-shek collapsed due to this operation. In fact, Chiang Kai-shek has not been invited to important Allied conferences ("Yalta Conference" and "Potsdam Conference") since then. According to the Stilwell document, Roosevelt said, "Can China win?" Stilwell said, "There is no choice but to eliminate Chiang Kai-shek." During the 1944 Hengyang battle, he could not sleep at night and twice. He says he thought about suicide. The American side also planned to assassinate Chiang Kai-shek, and three methods of "poisoning", "aircraft incident", and "pretending to be suicide" were considered, but it was canceled in 1944 due to changes in the international situation such as Burma. The successor that the United States envisioned is Sun Fountain. As Roosevelt's Chief of Staff George Marshall and General Joseph Stilwell have long insisted, Chiang Kai-shek's army is actually a demoralized and corrupt organization that does not form an army. It became clear that he had no desire or ability to fight with the United States and other Allied forces. As a result, President Roosevelt changed the scenario of the operation against Japan from the conventional bombing of Japan and other countries from the air bases of mainland China to the one that MacArthur and others claimed to occupy the islands of the Pacific Ocean one after another. China was dismissed at the Yalta Conference, and the Allied nation's footsteps were disturbed, with angry Chiang Kai-shek presenting a peace plan to Japan against the will of the United States. In Operation Ichi-Go of the Japanese Army, the National Revolutionary Army was killed and injured at 750,000, causing it to lose to the Communist Party in the civil war. China would not have been dictated by the Communist Party if it had made peace with Japan and cooperated in protecting it from communism.

It's true, the IJN pilots had crazy high standards. This hurt them in the long run: The men they lost at Midway were irreplaceable, not least because all four carriers were sunk. If even one carrier had survived, it would have escaped with a cadre of pilots. Every man was lost. (Unless some were rescued from the sea by other surface ships, which I've never heard.) Further, the IJN didn't rotate their best pilots back home to act as trainers. Pilot replacements were never near the high standard of the 1941 aviators. The U.S., on the other hand, was aggressive about sending top aces, experienced pilots home to train the next generation of pilots. This paid off as the war continued.

[@scottloar]

Jay Kaufman, all true but with one notable omission: Those lost at Midway were the pilots but also the carrier crews, that host of specifically trained men who in different functions together and as a coordinated team literally ran each carrier.

[@mikespangler98]

They got about half the pilots back, but the hanger crews did worse. Read Shattered Sword by Parshall and Tully. It's an academic quality book so a bit of a slog, but it's worth it. The real attrition of Japanese naval air power was in the Solomon Island campaign. See the battle of Santa Cruz to see an example of aircraft losses even in a battle the Japanese won.

[@vlad78th]

Agreed but the IJN main pilot losses happened after Midway. At Midway it is mainly the Hiryu flight group which suffered from a high casualty ratio. The other carriers pilots were more or less spared because they were in no position to fight after the morning US strike. It is the carrier specialized crews and mecanics who suffered a lot during that battle, especially Kaga hangar crews who were slaughtered by the hundreds. Japan could even less replace them than pilots because it was not as industrially advanced as the united states. The battle of the Salomon Sea and especially the battle of Santa Cruz did really hurt Japanese pilots badly (especially US AA) combined with the Guadalcanal campaign. After Midway the IJN was still capable of fielding whole carrier flight groups of expert pilots, by december 1942 they could not do that anymore, most pearl harbour veterans were alredy dead and the skill of japanese pilots dropped dramatically.

Escape from Zhangjiakou-Hiroshi Nemoto, a former Japanese commander who saved Taiwan's predicament On August 15, 1945 (Showa 20), even if Japan's defeat was decided, Nemoto decided not to disarm against the order from his home country. The battle with the large Soviet troops that had crossed the border continued for three days from August 19. The only fundamental purpose was to stop the Soviet invasion and safely raise 40,000 residents while gaining time. From the National Revolutionary Army, which once had a war, a messenger goes to the root Nemoto, who safely escaped the Japanese from Zhangjiakou and returned to Japan, had more duties waiting for him. He was to demobilize Japanese troops deployed in northeastern China. Nemoto made a promise to return 350,000 soldiers through direct negotiations with the Kuomintang side. During the Sino-Japanese War, the Japanese army had fought with the Kuomintang army led by Chiang Kai-shek, but on the other hand, both armies also had pipes that could communicate with each other. Chiang Kai-shek has experience studying abroad in Japan. He was also an officer of the National Revolutionary Army enrolled in the Japanese Army Academy. There is a reason why the Kuomintang responded to the return of Japanese soldiers. There was the Communist Party's army led by Mao Zedong, and the Soviet army behind it. Certainly there was a political desire to return the Japanese troops from mainland China as soon as possible and focus on the fight against the Communist Party. It was August 1946 (Showa 21) that Nemoto boarded his last return ship after seeing the demobilization of all the soldiers. Hiroshi Nemoto's life as a soldier seemed to end here. However, in an unexpected way, the soldier, Hiroshi Nemoto, revives. One day, more than two years after returning to Japan, a stranger came into contact with the roots. The man is a messenger of the Kuomintang. He said he begged Nemoto to travel to Taiwan to support the Kuomintang army led by Chiang Kai-shek. Chiang Kai-shek and its surroundings knew the fundamental character and his ability to plan and command operations. Regarding the situation in East Asia around this time, the Korean Peninsula was divided into two parts, the eve of the Korean War. In addition, due to Japan's defeat, Taiwan's sovereignty changed from Japan to the Republic of China (= Kuomintang government). On the other hand, in mainland China, the civil war between Chiang Kai-shek's Kuomintang and Mao Zedong's Communist Party continued. Eventually, the situation turned to the Communist Party, and the cornered Kuomintang fled to Taiwan. Nemoto decided to go to Taiwan. Taiwan rule of Kinmen Island is a fundamental achievement In June 1949, after being visited by a messenger, Nemoto took a small boat from the port of Nobeoka, Miyazaki Prefecture, to Taiwan and reunited with Chiang Kai-shek, without telling the truth to his family, and became an inferior National Revolutionary Army. Promised to support. He was none other than to give back to the National Revolutionary Army, who helped the Japanese who fled Zhangjiakou return home. At the request of Chiang Kai-shek, Nemoto went to Fujian Province, China, on the opposite bank of Taiwan, as a military adviser to the National Revolutionary Army. The civil war between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party was about to end with the victory of Mao Zedong's Communist Party forces. It was obvious that if Fujian Province was robbed by the Communist Party's army trying to invade Taiwan, even Taiwan would fall into the hands of the Communist Party. It was Kinmonjima that Nemoto noticed. Kinmen Island is 180 kilometers from the mainland of Taiwan, but only 2 kilometers from mainland China. I have been to Kinmen Island several times for interviews. The city on the mainland China side is right in front of you. The buildings on the other side seem to be picked up. The strategy that the roots set up is (1) to allow the enemy's troops to land on Kinmonjima = lure (2) after sunset, burn down all the ships used by the enemy's troops for landing. With this, the enemy has no ships to supply or use when retreating. ③ Then, the enemy's troops that landed are surrounded and ambushed. The operation is successful. Mao Zedong had no choice but to abandon the capture of Taiwan and the unification including Taiwan. After more than 70 years, Kinmen Island is still the border between China and Taiwan. In that sense, what led to today's "composition of China and Taiwan" may be traced back to the escape of Japanese from Zhangjiakou. I lied that I couldn't do anything when I returned to Japan with a fishing rod on my shoulder. In October 1949, Mao Zedong declared the establishment of the People's Republic of China. Chiang Kai-shek, on the other hand, is based in Taiwan. The division of China and Taiwan was decided. Nemoto will return to Japan in June 1952 (Showa 27), the year after the signing of the San Francisco Peace Treaty, when Japan's sovereignty was restored. Quoted from a newspaper article reporting the return of Nemoto. Hiroshi Nemoto (62), a former commander of the Japanese Army dispatched to North China, returned from Taipei at 10:10 am on the 25th with a CAT aircraft arriving at Haneda for the first time in three years. Mr. Nemoto, wearing a Panama hat on his shoulder and a white linen suit, had a meeting with a Chinese representative (= the current Taiwanese diplomat), and then he was surrounded by his wife and four sons who were greeted at his home in Tokyo. I went to, but told reporters: (Omitted) "On the evening of June 24, 1945, I boarded a small boat from Nobeoka Port under the guidance of a Chinese (Note: Kuomintang official). I went to Operation Amoy in Fujian Province, but I'm sorry for the hospitality because I couldn't do anything. Recently, I decided to return home because both politics and military have calmed down. " (June 25, 1952, Mainichi Shimbun evening edition) "Tsurizao" has a deep episode. When stowawaying to Taiwan, Nemoto left his family saying "go fishing" when leaving his home in Tokyo. That's why he landed at Haneda Airport, pretending to be on his way home from fishing. The size of the scale as a fundamental human being that makes you feel humor is transmitted. Nemoto said when he returned to Japan, "I'm sorry I couldn't do anything," but he probably said so in the civil war with the Communist Party to avoid friction caused by the Japanese participation in the Kuomintang. He dared not tell the truth. These stories are detailed in two books that depict the life of the roots. "Strategic General Hiroshi Nemoto's Conspiracy of a Military Commander" (written by Shigero Komatsu, Kojinsha) "The miracle of Ryusho Kadota, Kadokawa Bunko, the army general who saved Taiwan dedicated to this life and righteousness" (Ryusho Kadota) If Mao Zedong's army had taken control of Taiwan, there is no doubt that the security map of today's East Asia, including Japan, would have changed significantly. The Japanese were involved in the strategy to prevent it. In addition, the beginning was Zhangjiakou, China, where the Olympic Games are currently being held. The history is very deep. I feel like I'm going to make it

As a postwar Japanese, I cannot understand why Imperial Japan declared a war against the United States. Judging from a huge gap of national powers between the United States and Imperial Japan as of 1941, it was unrealistic and even suicidal for Imperial Japan to go to war with United States. I think Japanese leaders should have make last-ditch efforts to avert a war against the United States. If US-Japan was staved off, today`s Japan would be very different.

[@k.hashimoto8606]

Japanese then thought Japan would win with Zero.

[@georgecoventry8441]

Yes, it was unrealistic to fight the USA, and Yamamoto knew that. He advised against launching such a war, but he faithfully followed orders when the decision was made by his superiors. However, the USA had cut off Japan's overseas supplies of oil in early 1941 with a trade embargo. And Japan was already committed to a major war in China and had no domestic sources of oil. Without the oil, Japan's military and peacetime economy would not be able to continue the war effort in China....and they were not about to abandon that! Accordingly, they went to war against the USA, Great Britain, and Holland...simply because they HAD to get the oil in the Dutch East Indies! And FDR's embargo had cut it off. If you think about it, any great power in existence WILL go to war if some other power cuts off ALL of their oil supply. War with the USA became inevitable (even if it was very unrealistic) once the USA cut off Japan's supply of oil, and that's all there was to it. They would fight over their oil supply, even if the chances of winning were almost hopeless...because to "not fight" was to "surrender without firing a shot", and the Japanese psychology of the time simply could not accept that idea. They preferred death over surrender. And they figured they *might* have a chance of victory if they crippled the American fleet in the early going. That idea didn't work out, because they failed to sink any of the American carriers at Pearl Harbor. Without sinking the USA carriers, the Pearl Harbor attack was basically useless...although very impressive. The 3 American carriers based in Hawaii were all out at sea on maneuvers that day, and so they did not meet the fate of the old battleships on Battleship Row. That was just extremely bad luck for Japan. It was a few American carriers which later struck back very effectively at the Japanese fleet at Coral Sea and Midway. Everything depended on a handful of aircraft carriers, and luck was not on Japan's side after the USA broke their military codes. The loss of 4 of their six biggest carriers at Midway was an unbelievable disaster....and from then on the naval war was unwinnable for Japan. (It probably would have been unwinnable anyway...in the long run...but Midway speeded things up considerably.)

Koreans from the former Japanese army played a leading role in the Korean War as the main force of the Korean army after the end of Japanese rule, and the Korean Army Chief of Staff until the 18th (1969) was all from the former army.

The damage caused by both engagements in the Korean War was enormous, and the death toll on the UN and South Korean forces was about 420,000 for the South Korean army, about 50,000 for the US army, about 3,000 for the other UN forces, and 1.06 million for Korean civilians. It is said that there are surplus people, and it is estimated that more than 2 million people have been killed or injured in North Korea and China. General Baek was fighting in the Manchurian Army during the Japanese colonial era. General Baek also participated in the founding of the South Korean army, and was nominated by the U.S. military to represent South Korea at the truce talks. He made an effort to rebuild the army. The US military, which initially treated the South Korean army as a "military soldier," revered only General Baek as the "best field commander." His voice testimony is permanently preserved at the US Army Infantry Museum. If General Baek had not existed, South Korea would not have existed now, and the Korean Peninsula would have been unified by North Korea.

This book → FREEDOM BETRAYED: Herbert Hoover's Secret History of the Second World War and Its Aftermath) is the process of World War II over 20 years by the 31st President of the United States Herbert Hoover (term 1929-33). It is a memoir that verified. The basic idea of ​​Republican President Hoover is, above all, a consistent and harsh critique of communism. The criticism began with Roosevelt's approval of the Soviet Union, and went all the way through the alliance with the Soviet Union, preparing for the war, and making major concessions to the Soviet Union in the process of ending the war. At the same time, Roosevelt's policies were also directed toward the expansion of the postwar communist regime and the Cold War between East and West. With the confrontation between the Soviet Union under Stalin's control and the communist movements in each country in mind, Hoover called on Japan to avoid the opening of the war between Japan and the United States and to promptly reconcile after the opening of the war. In that sense, it is an indispensable document for the Japanese to fundamentally review World War II.

Japan's support for Ukraine "Green Ukraine" In the Russian Revolution of 1917, the Romanov dynasty, which had been abdicated by Nicholas II and lasted for about 300 years, collapsed. After that, the birth of the Soviet government aiming to establish a socialist nation will increase the momentum for independence among ethnic minorities such as Ukraine. It was Two revolutions that took place in Russia in 1917, the "February Revolution" that rebelled against the previous tsarism (absolute monarchy by the emperor) and the "October Revolution" that led to the establishment of a socialist state. Ukrainians in the Russian Far East have begun a struggle to establish autonomy. The Ukrainian Far East Conference will be held in Ussuriysk in June 1917, forming a council (Kray Rada). It was At the second meeting in Khabarovsk in January 1918, Green Ukraine was declared as part of the Ukrainian state, after which it became known as the "Green Ukraine Republic", the "Far East Ukraine Immigrant Government" and so on. It was At the third meeting in April 1918, a young 36-year-old engineer, Yuri Glushko-Mova, was elected as chairman of the council, considering the creation of an independent Ukrainian state, and in the summer, General Borys R. Khreschatytsky. The Ukrainian Army of the Far East (with more than 5,000 troops) was organized as the commander, and a draft constitution was drafted at the 4th meeting in October of the same year. In the summer of 1919, the council paved the way for an armed struggle against the Korczak administration, which ruled the region. In response, most Ukrainian leaders were arrested at the behest of Primorsky Krai Governor General Rosanov. It was Under these circumstances, the Far Eastern Republic of the Bolsheviks was established in April 1920 as a buffer state for Russia and Japan. The Far Eastern Republic recognized the autonomy of Green Ukraine, but the Far Eastern Ukrainian army was disarmament. It was However, when Japan withdrew from Siberia in 1922, the Far Eastern Republic lost its raison d'etre and was integrated into the Russian Soviet Union Socialist Republic. Here, the dream of the founding of Green Ukraine was destroyed. After that, when Japan embarked on the establishment of Manchuria in 1932, Japan planned to establish a Ukrainian state in the coastal states as a buffer state with Russia, and in July 1937 it was called the "Far East Ukrainian Development and Development Movement". Formed a political organization. However, the group was viewed by the Soviet Union and Ukrainians as a Japanese spy group, and when the Pacific War broke out in 1941, Japan abandoned this plan and abandoned support for Ukrainians in the Far East. It was In this way, the people of Ukraine have been "required to serve as a buffer between Russia and neighboring countries" not only in Europe but also in the Far East. If you were a neighbor, what would happen to the international community surrounding Japan today? It was One thing I can say is that they were "closer" than we thought. Perhaps our neighbors, they are now bravely fighting to protect the country from unjustified invaders in isolated and unaided lands in remote Eastern Europe. I think it would be okay to come up with bolder support measures, such as welcoming Ukrainian refugees who have lost their way to Japan. In the long run, I think that such humanitarian assistance "will lead to true national interests." It was Nowadays, I think there were many nodules that led Russia to a democratic nation after the collapse of the Soviet Union. It is important for the international community to "know that it is at that turning point" and "to come up with effective measures without losing timing", and it is too late to speak out after things happen.

@@fides249 Operation Ichi-Go is an operation conducted by the Japanese Army on the Chinese mainland from April 17th to December 10th, 1944 during the Sino-Japanese War. It was the last major offensive of the Japanese Army, which caused the National Revolutionary Army to be hit hard and affected during the Chinese Civil War. However, on the other hand, the United States is also mediating the conclusion of the Double Tenth Agreement with Chiang Kai-shek in order to avoid a civil war. According to a study by Barbara W. Tuchman, the results of this operation had a more significant impact on the subsequent war situation than the Japanese had imagined, and had a decisive impact on Japan's fate. According to it, Franklin Roosevelt has consistently strongly trusted and supported Chiang Kai-shek since the beginning of the war, and encouraged him in the war against Japan so that he would not drop out of the Allies in a single peace with Japan during the Cairo Conference. However, he said that he changed his mind because the front of Chiang Kai-shek collapsed due to this operation. In fact, Chiang Kai-shek has not been invited to important Allied conferences ("Yalta Conference" and "Potsdam Conference") since then. According to the Stilwell document, Roosevelt said, "Can China win?" Stilwell said, "There is no choice but to eliminate Chiang Kai-shek." During the 1944 Hengyang battle, he could not sleep at night and twice. He says he thought about suicide. The American side also planned to assassinate Chiang Kai-shek, and three methods of "poisoning", "aircraft incident", and "pretending to be suicide" were considered, but it was canceled in 1944 due to changes in the international situation such as Burma. The successor that the United States envisioned is Sun Fountain. As Roosevelt's Chief of Staff George Marshall and General Joseph Stilwell have long insisted, Chiang Kai-shek's army is actually a demoralized and corrupt organization that does not form an army. It became clear that he had no desire or ability to fight with the United States and other Allied forces. As a result, President Roosevelt changed the scenario of the operation against Japan from the conventional bombing of Japan and other countries from the air bases of mainland China to the one that MacArthur and others claimed to occupy the islands of the Pacific Ocean one after another. China was dismissed at the Yalta Conference, and the Allied nation's footsteps were disturbed, with angry Chiang Kai-shek presenting a peace plan to Japan against the will of the United States. The Japanese Operation Ichi-Go attack left the National Revolutionary Army with 750,000 casualties. This caused the Kuomintang to lose to the Communist Party in the civil war. China would not have been dominated by the dictatorship Communist Party if it had made peace with Japan and cooperated in protecting it from communism.
