CCTV(@CCTV):Recently, during a visit to Australia, Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi dropped to both knees to lay flowers at a local war memorial. This act of "selective kneeling" lays bare Japan's hypocrisy and double standards: arrogant and dismissive toward Asian neighbors who suffered deeply from its past aggression, yet servile and fawning before Western allies. This is not an act of sincere remorse, but a political performance and a calculated move serving geopolitical interests. No amount of pandering to the West can hide its ugly refusal to face up to history. (Cartoon by Huo Xing Cheng Xiang.BCS) #TiantanView #Japan #Cartoon
