Hello everyone, I am Yu Tianren . Most of my friends call me " Laobing ". Today we will "circle something useful" and let's talk about Japan's new Foreign Minister Lin Fangzheng. Because Liberal Democratic Party Secretary-General Gan Liming was defeated in the small election area in the just-concluded House election,
The former Foreign Minister Motoki Toshisuke was transferred to the Secretary-General of the Liberal Democratic Party, Foreign Minister The position was represented by Prime Minister Kishida Fumio for a few days, and now Lin Fangmasato is now appointed.
Japanese surnames generally have two or three Chinese characters. The surnames of single Chinese characters like "Lin" are quite similar to Chinese , but in fact, Japan has several single surnames. In addition to "Lin", there are also "gu" of rice, Qin Shihuang "Qin" and so on.
How to distinguish whether this is a Japanese or a Chinese? Look at the pronunciation, the one who reads the Japanese, the one who reads the pronunciation is Chinese, for example, this Lin, the pronunciation はやし is Japanese, and the pronunciation lin is Chinese.
Lin Fang was born into a political family. Her great-grandfather Lin Ping Shiro was a member of the House of Representatives, her grandfather Lin Jiajie and her father Lin Yilang were both members of the House of Representatives. He was originally a senator, elected for five consecutive terms, and is now a member of the House of Representatives.
Lin Fangzheng has served as the Minister of Defense , the Minister of Culture and Science , the Minister of Agriculture and Water, the Minister of Economy and Finance, and has also participated in the 2012 Liberal Democratic Party presidential election, which was of course a failure. Lin Fang belongs to Kishida Fumio's Kishida School, which is Hirochi Society, and is also the "senior" of Hirochi Society, second only to President Kishida Fumio.
So when there is a vacancy in the important position of Minister of Foreign Affairs, Kishida Fumio wanted to let the second person in his sect fill in the blanks,
because Kishida's strength in the cabinet is not strong enough. But at the beginning, the leader of the two largest factions of the Liberal Democratic Party, Shinzo Abe and Taro Aso did not agree with Lin Fangzheng as the candidate, because Lin Fangzheng has a good relationship with China and is the president of the "Japan-China Friendly Parliamentary Alliance",
And not only he himself is the president, his father Lin Yiro also served as the president of the Japan-China Friendly Parliamentary Alliance, so the two conservative parties were worried about Lin Fangzheng. Will asking Lin Fang to sit in this position misunderstand the international community? In fact, this "international community" refers to the United States.
As for Shinzo Abe, another reason why he doesn't like Lin Fangzheng is that they are both from Yamaguchi Prefecture , politicians don't like fellow villagers, because fellow villagers are rivals competing for the same land. But this time Fumio Kishida performed very strongly and insisted on Lin Fangzheng. Originally, Chief Cabinet Secretary Hiroichi Matsuno and Minister of Defense Kishi Nobuo are Hoshida School, which is now Abe School, Minister of Finance Suzuki Shunichi is Aso School. These most important positions are yours. Can't I arrange my own people? No matter how I say I am also the Prime Minister. Although is not as big as yours, I am not afraid that you will squeeze me down as soon as the election is over. So under the pressure of Abe and Aso , he brought this Foreign Minister into his own sect.
But no matter what Lin Fangzheng's attitude towards China, it is difficult for him to make a difference at this point in time. is there because the bad situation is there. caused people's concerns because of his identity as the president of the Japan-China Friendship Parliamentary League, and he immediately resigned from this position.
In fact, Lin Fangzheng talked about his relationship with China on many occasions recently, and repeatedly emphasized that he is not a pro-China faction, but only a knowledge-China faction. "It's better to know than not know, right?" Compared with his relationship with China, Lin Fangzheng emphasized that he was from Harvard Graduate School, worked in the banking committee of the US House of Commons, and worked as an assistant to international affairs for Senator William Ross.
emphasized that his relationship with the United States should dilute China's influence. Lin Fang is a member of parliament. In Japan, elected parliamentarians are called "politicians". In fact, politicians are the least political persons, politicians have the least political creed, and votes are the most fundamental thing.
You can get votes whenever you say and do, and politicians do whatever they say. Moreover, politicians will not be too extreme and leave a way out for themselves in everything. For example, while Lin Fang was serving as the president of the Japan-China Friendship Councilors' Union, she also participated in the parliament's "Everyone goes to visit the Yasukuni Shrine" and goes to visit the Yasukuni Shrine. In fact, Japan does not have any independent foreign policy, everything is subject to the United States, so it is actually irrelevant to the overall situation. This is all about today.
