TOKYO: Analyzing the Trial.

      Аннотация: The Allied victory in the Pacific led to the indictment and trial of twenty-eight senior Japanese dignitaries responsible for the deaths of between 20 and 30 million people during World War II. These high dignitaries, charged with crimes against peace, war crimes, and crimes against humanity, were tried by the International Military Tribunal for the Far East.In the eyes of many observers, the trial in Tokyo had the appearance of revenge of the Western powers over Japan, especially a revenge of the United States, which did not forgive the surprise attack on the American fleet at Pearl Harbor. The winners of World War II also want to punish Japan, which had signed a pact of understanding with Germany and Italy to annex other territories in the Pacific and East Asia.True or false. In the book the author analyses the trial and highlights the procedural weaknesses and political negotiations in the work of the International Military Tribunal for the Far West.
