Talk:Uichiro Niwa

Niwa's Apology
I have edited the sentence concerning Niwa's apology. The original sentence said that the ambassador had been "forced" to "issue" an apology. This is misleading. He did not "issue" a public apology but did so in a letter from the Japanese embassy in Beijing to the Japanese foreign minister Koichiro Genba.

Background Information
Hello my dear friends. I hope everyone is warm in this cold winter. I have added some background information since I think it is essential to understanding Niwa's comment and the context of his subsequent purging from the Japanese diplomatic corps.
