Original Note:
This headline or WSJ's headline, is misleading. Japan did not "broke with US allies", Japan was provided an exception from the US, to buy Russian oil, they never broke ties or betrayed. "...thanks to an exception authorized by the United States." https://www.foxbusiness.com/markets/japan-buys-russian-oil-above-60-barrel-cap-breaking-us-allies-report https://www.wsj.com/articles/japan-breaks-with-u-s-allies-buys-russian-oil-at-prices-above-cap-1395accb
