One’s family and their ancestors are held in the highest regard in Japanese society, yet Kishida spit on all those connected with the US’ nuclear bombings of his country just for the sake of pushing its propaganda.
I don't know how much you listen to the radio in Russia but I can assure you it's been just choc-a-bloc full of reference to the 80th anniversary of the Battle of Stalingrad — the turning point — these past couple months. It's funny: I'd bet no-one gave it a second's thought a year or two ago, yet it seems to be at the forefront of everyone's mind now. Perhaps it will be like that in Japan in a couple of years, too; maybe they just need to have the right things happen at the right time to be prepared for a better understanding and accompanying recognition?
"...Russia’s nuclear threat', the latter observation of which simply isn’t true."
Quite!
Maintaining such delusion requires energy; it needs to be fed; the more fantastic the delusion, the greater the demand to maintain it. Nothing lasts forever but some things run out of energy more quickly than others. It's impossible to know exactly when the demands of maintaining such delusion may outweigh the capacity to supply it but gut feelings can give you a sense. I don't feel this one can last much longer. Its 80th anniversary sounds about right to me.
"...showing his country’s fealty to its patron..."
This could be an important step in preparing the Japanese for the 80th anniversary.
"...the Mainstream Media [for] extending false credence to the sensational scenario..."
And this might be no less important. The Japanese aren't stupid: 'You can't fool all the people all the time.'
Like a good little flunky of NATO
"the 78th anniversary"

By the way: https://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english/spit. It doesn't sit well in Europe, nor among many others, particularly now. Those days are gone.
"In American English, the form spit is used as the past tense and past participle."
Think of it like 'sit' or 'defecate'.
