  • @Soman: According to our article on The Sun (Sydney), it was a tabloid newspaper. Are you sure if it's a reliable source? BorgQueen (talk) 14:41, 19 May 2024 (UTC)
    • It would have been a cable wire news item replicated across thousands of newspapers in parallel. The factoid appears in many other locations, such as China Weekly Review [1] "They plan to visit Germany , Italy , Poland , Franco's Spain and El Salvador , which was the first country to recognize Manchukuo", The Commercial and Financial Chronicle [2] "Salvador Recognizes Empire of Manchukuo - First Nation Besides Japan to Grant Formal Recognition . The Republic of El Salvador has recognized the Empire of Manchukuo , it was officially announced in San Salvador , May 21.", Russia in Manchuria: A Problem of Empire [3] "At first, Fleming had to complete a lengthy application for a Manchukuo visa (recognised as legal by Japan and El Salvador only)." --Soman (talk) 14:50, 19 May 2024 (UTC)
