Yes, but the ruling stated that they violated defamation rules, which implies defamation did happen.

The question I was asking is, how is it defamation if it's true. You seem to have wandered off onto a tangent of what constitutes ethical / civilised advertising.

one can easily see what happens when it is allowed to talk about your enemies instead of what you provide. Just look at the logical end of this in form of the attack ads of the US political campaigns.

More countries than not allow comparative advertising, and the world is not ending. Why use politics as an inaccurate example when the majority of countries actually practice it to some extent?

The question was how is it defamation, you're giving a non-answer that's nothing more than a blatant appeal to authority.

So if an ad were to make fun of how horrible Tesla's Full Self Driving feature is, that would be unfair and misleading? As opposed to the pain simple truth?

She has received the explicit support of U.S. President Donald Trump: on Sunday, the tycoon immediately congratulated her on her “landslide victory.”

Really tells you all you need to know about her right there.

Japan “is heading for an economic and fiscal catastrophe, but Takaichi doesn’t seem to understand it,” Koichi Nakano, a professor of political science at Sophia University in Tokyo, observed last Thursday. He warned political spectrum was shifting to the right and predicted that Takaichi’s “bet” to “personalize politics” and “create a system for which she is barely accountable” would likely win. He was alarmed by Takaichi’s intention to cut consumption taxes while simultaneously increasing defense spending, which would in turn “antagonize China and militarize the tension.” What’s more, Tokyo has agreed with Trump to invest $550 billion in the United States. “It doesn’t make much sense in terms of security and economic policy,” said Nakano.
