14.08.2025 ⇢ Iranian Oil Sanctions Defied

⌨Japanese media on August 14 brought to the forefront revelations regarding geopolitical and economic shifts. A Nikkei survey disclosed that 70% of Iranian oil tankers falsified their routes, primarily to China, to evade US sanctions, a development connected to ongoing tariff and trade concerns seen in previous days. Concurrently, US-Russia diplomatic efforts continued to receive significant attention, with reports evolving from President Trump's earlier warnings to Putin regarding Ukraine peace to later news of the US urging an unconditional ceasefire and a US-Russia summit planned with only interpreters present. Domestically, the Liberal Democratic Party presidential election discussions, influenced by the Ishiba administration's sustained public support, remained a consistent theme. Attention was also drawn to major Japanese companies' collective decarbonization efforts and continued focus on preserving historical memory.
