But Japan has not only never reflected on its wrong behavior, but also wants to wait for an opportunity to "retaliate" against China and Russia. At a meeting on May 25, Sato Masahisa, President of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan's ruling party, suggested that , the Japanese Self-Defense Forces , drive the warships to " Taiwan Strait " to show "free navigation" and carry out exercises near Okhotsk Sea in the Russian Far East region to respond to the Chinese and Russian cruise.
Sato Masahisa is a typical right-wing politician. He has made such threatening arguments against China many times. This time, he took the opportunity to hype again just to take the opportunity to gain attention for himself and win the support of internal hawkish politicians in China.
As for whether Japan has the courage to show off its military power in the Taiwan Strait? From the current stage, the possibility is not high. Even if you have this ambition, your own strength does not allow it. If the Japanese frigate wants to sneak into the Taiwan Strait under our noses, you have to ask the People's Liberation Army whether it agrees.
Return ten thousand steps back, if Japan really dares to take this dangerous step, it will inevitably lead to catastrophic consequences. We will never be indifferent to this kind of act of blatantly provoking China's territorial sovereignty and national dignity. The People's Liberation Army will inevitably take action. By then, it may be more than just sailing around Japan for a week.
As the saying goes, "You can go to the enemy, and I can go." "free navigation and free flight" has never been a patent for the United States and Western countries. , for example, Tsukushima Strait , Miyako Strait , Tsubasa Strait , our warship can also go to the future several times, and Japan is accustomed to this.
As the spokesperson of the Ministry of Defense said before, the reason why Japan is nervous about the actions of Chinese military aircraft and warships around it is because it has not relaxed its mindset. Especially with the continuous strengthening of China's military modernization capabilities, Japan's mentality has become increasingly unbalanced. On the one hand, it still has a covetous desire for China's territory, and on the other hand, it is also very afraid of China's military strength.
can be seen from the frequent friction between China and Japan near the Diaoyu Islands in recent years. Japan's idea is to gradually break free from the shackles of post-war order by exaggerating the "security threat" posed by external military forces to its own country in order to seek "military normalization", and China and Russia have become the "excuses" for Japan to take dangerous steps.
It is not difficult to understand why Japanese politicians have put forward the ridiculous suggestion of "sending warships across the Taiwan Strait". This is not out of simple "retaliation", but deliberately provoking the sensitive nerves of mainland China and prompting the regional situation to further heat up.
For Japan, the advantage of this is that if the mainland responds decisively, then Japan can turn the tables, saying that it is being attacked by the so-called "military intimidation" from China, and then, on the grounds that the regional security situation has deteriorated, it will take the trend to develop the "preemptive" strike capability against enemy bases on the agenda.
In addition, Japan's deeper plan is to take the opportunity to fight a turnaround. World War II 's identity as a defeated country has made Japan unable to achieve "national normalization". Therefore, Japan hopes to rise up through the "World War III", get rid of the control of the United States, and become the "leader" of the East Asian order.
So we can clearly feel that Japan's provocation against China is even stronger than that of the United States on some issues, including the topics such as the US-Japan Security Treaty that the Japanese government has emphasized in recent years applies to the Diaoyu Islands and maintains attention to the stability of the Taiwan Strait, which are all for this purpose.
Similarly, the United States has long been aware of Japan's little thoughts. The reason why it keeps loosening Japan is to deliberately let Japan share the cost of maintaining hegemony in the Indo-Pacific region and reduce the military pressure it faces. After all, the United States does not have the ability to confront Japan head-on with China and Russia at the same time, so it chose to let Japan out of its cage to stir up trouble.
For a long time, China has always adhered to a great power to maintain its close relationship with Japan, but the latter's nature is always fearing power but not being virtuous, which has led to the barriers between China and Japan that are difficult to eliminate.Nowadays, Japan's actions are becoming increasingly dangerous, and it is even intended to test China's "red line". Faced with an ambitious Japan, we must be clear-headed that only by developing a sufficient number of nuclear deterrent forces can it maintain a little rationality!
