中新社莫斯科9月9日电 (记者 田冰)针对日方要求俄拆除战胜军国主义日本的纪念碑及相关言论,俄罗斯外交部发言人扎哈罗娃9日表示,花朵本身无罪,罪在日本军国主义分子,并呼吁日方真正反省。

扎哈罗娃说,俄远东哈巴罗夫斯克边疆区首府哈巴罗夫斯克市9月4日举行战胜军国主义日本的纪念碑揭幕仪式。纪念碑雕塑描绘了一名苏联士兵脚踩刻有菊花图案的、断裂的界碑场景。日本驻哈巴罗夫斯克总领事馆以外交照会形式要求俄方移除纪念碑中的界碑部分,理由是菊花纹章是日本皇室的象征。日本首相高市早苗亦在社交媒体上发文,要求俄方拆除纪念碑,理由是“伤及日本民众感情”。

扎哈罗娃指出,菊花图案不仅出现在日本发动的侵略扩张战争的各类勋章上,还印刻在其武器上。日本军国主义当年正是举着这些象征,屠杀了成千上万无辜的平民。“当年日本军国主义者屠杀我国和中国平民时,不正是举着这些象征吗?不正是举着这些‘花朵’吗?他们那时可曾顾及别人的感受?显然没有。”

她表示,日本政客经常参拜供奉有二战甲级战犯的靖国神社,在日本邻国看来这是日本拒绝承认战争罪行的表现,而这些罪行曾给亚洲人民带来深重灾难。俄方一直呼吁日本尊重二战结果,日方却对此置若罔闻,视而不见。

扎哈罗娃强调,日方针对哈巴罗夫斯克纪念碑提出的要求,侵犯了俄罗斯的主权,是企图再次误导国际社会、篡改日本军国主义历史的行径。“他们要求我们理解甚至原谅在那一标志下所犯下的血腥罪行。花朵本身无罪,罪在日本军国主义分子。我们不会忘记,我们会铭记在心,绝不能忘记。”

扎哈罗娃表示,建议日本领导层放弃参拜靖国神社,“以积极悔罪的行动,最终明确、毫不含糊地承认日本军国主义对邻国人民犯下的罪行”。(完)

The current annual navigation volume is far lower than that of the Suez Canal.
