I’m Japanese. This video is wrong. In 1956, Japan and the Soviet Union signed a Joint Declaration providing for the end of the state of war, and for restoration of diplomatic relations between USSR and Japan. In the Joint Declaration, Soviet Union agreed to transfer to Japan the Habomai Islands and the island of Shikoton, the actual transfer of these islands to Japan to take place after the conclusion of a peace treaty and the declaration is also succeeded to by Russia. However, we still have territorial issues of other islands so we haven’t concluded the peace treaty yet. Anyway, the state of war have already ended technically. By this declaration, Japan could entry in the UN.
Funny. I see in the news that Russia just pulled out of the peace talks, citing Japan's support for Ukraine and the sanctions against Russia. Then, TH-cam recommends me this video. Coincidence?
@senzei dude the Wikipedia is not good at information cuz people could just edit things, and if so the USSR is supposed to get all of its territory back.
Btw, that tank in the video is an IS-2. Or a JS-2. Depends on how you pronounce Josef Stalin. If you say it like Iosif Stalin it’s an IS-2 and vice versa. It was developed from the IS-1 and was made in response to the new German heavy and medium tanks like the Mark 5 “Panther,” Mark 6 “Tiger,” and their variants.
Japan: We are a new country and definitely not a part of Imperial Japan. Russia: Also, we are not Soviets now. HAI: I'm gonna pretend I didn't hear that.
As far as I know, Poland and Russia haven't signed a peace treaty with Russia after world War 2. The west just threw us under the bus and that was that. Correct me if I'm wrong though.

The Japanese do not do themselves any favors by refusing to teach their own history in their schools as the Germans do, and it has allowed a revisionist belief to take hold which is currently being adopted by the rising new Nationalistic faction in Japan which outright denies many known facts about the War that feel a bit too uncomfortable to acknowledge. You're participating in that and then scolding *me*? Don't get me wrong, I love Japan & hope to move there, but it is a very notable new take on old facts and it does not serve them well. Those that do not know history are doomed to (potentially).repeat history. The Emporer was lied to by his military leadership because it went against culture to deliver bad news bluntly... something that would serve as a good lesson if only they would teach it to the next generation.

Sure. I've read primary documents (put forward by noted historians after being declassified by various world governments) written by the deciding actors of that time (including the President of the US, tge Jspanese Emporer, and various military heads of multiple countries) but your internet snark outweighs that in expertise of analysis of meaning and intent. ... The Japanese do not do themselves any favors by refusing to teach their own history in their schools as the Germans do, and it has allowed a revisionist belief to take hold which is currently being adopted by the rising new Nationalistic faction in Japan which outright denies many known facts about the War that feel a bit too uncomfortable to acknowledge. You're participating in that and then scolding *me*? Don't get me wrong, I love Japan & hope to move there, but it is a very notable new take on old facts and it does not serve them well. Those that do not know history are doomed to (potentially).repeat history. The Emporer was lied to by his military leadership because it went against culture to deliver bad news bluntly... something that would serve as a good lesson if only they would teach it to the next generation.
Holy crap make a mini series about all the wars that ended long after the battles were fought or even never ended

You say dutch, but show the flag of Luxembourg
Fun fact: thats actually a dutch republic flag
@@vzii6 So the dutch republic and luxembourg have the same flag, and it could be either
Oh, the dutch republic lasted from 1500s to 1800s and the time he was referring to was in the 1600s. Man he pays extreme attention to detail.
