Japan Airline dumps 'Z' symbol logo to distance from Russia war sign
Published on Jun 17, 2022 08:37 am IST
Japan's Zipair budget airline has been forced to rebrand its logo -- the letter Z, linked to Russia's invasion of Ukraine. The symbol shot to controversy worldwide after being spotted on Russian tanks and military uniforms in Ukraine. It has since appeared on cars and clothing in Russia and online and has become a sign of support for the invasion, a patriotic trend the Kremlin is keen to encourage. Zipair president Shingo Nishida said Wednesday that the company is ditching the logo to avoid anyone mistakenly thinking his business is in favour of the conflict. Watch this video for more.
