Japan and the US during WW2 were not allies. They were enemies.
That is pretty much why Japan attacked Pearl Harbour in the first place.
Today the US and Japan today are allies, however.
The two situations are not exactly comparable. You shouldn’t treat your allies like you treat your enemies
In Japan this would go down terribly. Not only because sarcasm is seen as distasteful, he pretty much made her lose face.
I say “would” because in reality Japanese media tend to report stories with a pro-government, pro-US bias, so I doubt this little gaffe will get much traction domestically.
That’s legitimately a brilliant response.

I’m not sorry for this fascist ghoul, whitewashing the horrible warcrimes of their empire in WW2?
