After Russia takes military action against Ukraine, the United States and its allies issue a new round of sanctions on Moscow, covering almost all areas. Originally, judging by the development of the situation in Russia and Ukraine, people think that the one who follows the United States "runs the most" should be its hardcore ally Britain or Australia, or the three small countries of Baltic , but what the outside world did not expect was that the one who follows the trend this time the United States is the most vigorously sanctioned by Russia, Japan, the neighboring country in eastern Russia. Not only is Japan's sanctions severe enough, but many of the G7 countries' sanctions against Russia were first announced and implemented by Japan, and it has become a pioneer in putting pressure on Russia.
not only sanctions against Russia, but also "scrambled to the forefront" in terms of military aid to Ukraine, as a defeated country in World War II , Japan, which did not even allow the army to exist, was even "scrambled to the forefront". After careful consideration, people found that Japan's move was completely "the drunkard's intention was not to drink". It had begun to secretly "release" itself on the grounds of aiding Ukraine.
Comprehensive Observer Network , " Reference News " reported on March 9 that recently, a Japanese KC-767 refueling machine equipped with bulletproof vest and helmet flew to Ukraine from the Aviation Self-Defense Force Komaki Base. In order to provide military assistance to Ukraine, the Japanese government has previously specifically revised the "Three Principles for the Transfer of Defensive Equipment " and the "Self-Defense Force Law", thus clearing obstacles for the provision of weapons and equipment to the outside world. However, the Japanese side stated that the Self-Defense Forces only provide non-destructive materials to Ukraine, such as helmets, tents, cold-proof clothing, emergency food, sanitary supplies, cameras and generators, etc.
Japan even defended itself that Ukraine requested the provision of anti-tank missile , surface-to-air missiles and ammunition, etc., but the Japanese side did not agree on the grounds that the law does not allow it. But even so, it is an indisputable fact that Japan has begun to "retreat" itself, and this is the second time.
The first time was when the US "director" Afghanistan evacuated last year. Japan Air Self-Defense Force directly drove the military transport plane to Afghanistan under the name of " evacuation of overseas Chinese ". Because the situation in various parties was complicated at that time, Japan's move was not like the previous Self-Defense Force went out to rescue disasters and provide assistance. It can be said to be a "quasi-military operation". The actions of the Self-Defense Force are simply not allowed by the " Peace Constitution " and the Self-Defense Force Law.
In recent years, Japan has gone a long way to loosen the Self-Defense Forces. In terms of the Aviation Self-Defense Force, Japan has introduced a large number of F-35 stealth fighters from the United States, which is also one of the best fifth-generation aircraft in the world, which has clearly exceeded the scope of "special defense"; in terms of Maritime Self-Defense Force , the Japanese quasi- aircraft carrier "Izumo" completed the take-off and landing of F-35C carrier-based aircraft in August last year with the assistance of the United States, and has actually been upgraded to an aircraft carrier; in terms of Ground Self-Defense Force , Japan is preparing to increase the range of missile from 280 kilometers dedicated to defense to 1,200 kilometers. If it is supplemented with submarine as a vehicle, the strike range can already cover neighboring countries and have the ability to "launch attacks on opponent bases."
Former Japanese Prime Minister Shizo Abe When he resigned, he had been thinking about it that "were unable to complete the constitutional amendment during his term of office", and Five months after Kishida Fumio took office, he began to gradually "break through". Although it was in the name of "aid", the international community should also be alert.
Because of Japan, the remnants of militarism have not been completely eliminated, and he also believes that he lost in World War II and his land was ceded to be "unjust" and his local area was "unjust" by the nuclear bomb . Japan is dissatisfied with the achievements of World War II recognized by the international community. For many years, Japan has used the United States as its "protective umbrella" and hopes that it will achieve its goal of becoming a "normal country" as soon as possible. Even though he himself doesn't know how long this process will be, the Russian-Ukrainian conflict has allowed Japan to see "hope".First, Western allies are sanctioning Russia, and Japan is expected to take advantage of its "weakness" to regain the four northern islands of and subvert the achievements of World War II; second, Japan hopes to use military assistance to Ukraine to continuously break through the constraints of the "peace constitution", so that the Self-Defense Force can truly transform into the army, and even have the power to declare war in . Observations found that Japan's ambitions have been exposed more and more obvious.
