Japan's concerns about "there is something to do in Taiwan" did not disappear with the death of Abe . In order to cope with this concern, Japan decided to increase its defense spending and plans to align with NATO , increase the defense budget to 2% of GDP, and enhance Japan's defense capabilities.
According to this plan, Japan's defense budget next year will reach 5.5 trillion yen (about 278.4 billion yuan), a record high.
In the view of Japan Liberal Democratic Party Vice President Aso Taro , increasing the defense budget is mainly to deal with "Taiwan has something to do". If a war breaks out in Taiwan, it will be difficult for Japan to stay out of it. Japan's Yonako Island, Okinawa, Kagoshima and other places will be within the war zone. Taro Aso claimed that he had already smelled gunpowder and that the situation was urgent and that Japan's deterrence must be strengthened.
As the saying goes, good steel is used on the edge. Japan increases its defense expenditure. The first priority is to enhance Japan's counterattack ability to other countries' missiles , which is the so-called "off-strike capability outside the defense zone." Japan does not intend to passively defend. According to Fumio Kishida , Japan needs to have the "ability to attack enemy bases." To this end, Japan has strengthened its investment in weapons research and development, plans to mass produce long-range missiles , and deploy 1,000 long-range missiles to the southwestern islands to deal with military threats from mainland China.
Japan is a defeated country in World II. He committed unforgivable crimes against the people of East Asia. He should reflect on himself, apologize deeply, love peace, and stay away from war. But now he is ready to move, constantly arming himself, expanding his army and preparing for war, which has become a major insecurity factor for peace and stability in East Asia.
Japan once colonized Taiwan and still made ill-thinking plans against Taiwan, so it often talks about Taiwan, openly interferes in China's internal affairs, and deteriorates Sino-Japanese relations. Japan used "Taiwan's trouble" to increase defense spending, which was called responding to changes in the Taiwan Strait and "assisting defense against Taiwan" when necessary, in fact, it was to break through the Peace Constitution and enhance its own military strength, and attempt to turn the Self-Defense Force into a real army and gain the right to take the initiative to attack. In this way, with the revival of militarist thought, it is not ruled out that Japan will retake the old path of external expansion.
Coincidentally, Taiwan is also significantly increasing its defense budget. The defense expenditure next year is expected to reach NT$415.1 billion (approximately RMB 131.2 billion).
Compared with Japan, Taiwan's increased defense expenditure is mainly used to purchase US weapons and arm the Taiwan military to achieve the goal of "anti-China and Taiwan".
Since Biden came to power, he has sold arms to Taiwan several times. Although the outdated second-hand weapons to the Taiwan authorities are all outdated second-hand weapons, in the view of Tsai Ing-wen and others, the purpose of purchasing American weapons is not to defeat the People's Liberation Army with his own hands, but to hold the United States tightly and allow the United States to send troops to "protect Taiwan" at critical moments and fulfill the so-called promise of "US-Taiwan relations are as solid as rocks."
Whether it is Japan or the Taiwan authorities, they are exaggerating the war, escalating the situation in the Taiwan Strait, and treating mainland China as a "imaginary enemy." In fact, the Japanese people and Taiwanese compatriots do not want war, they are just games of power for politicians.
The Japanese government and the Taiwan authorities have a shadow of the United States behind it. The United States is the chess player, and they are just chess pieces.
In order to curb mainland China, the United States continues to play with fire, and recently proposed a "Taiwan Policy Law" to be reviewed and passed in Congress.
looked at the content of the bill, which was indeed too much. If it was really passed, it was equivalent to helping the DPP achieve "legal Taiwan independence", forcing the mainland to take action against Taiwan in advance.
The content of the bill includes the United States regarding Taiwan as a "main non-NATO allies", continuing to provide military assistance to Taiwan, enhancing Taiwan's military strength, and ensuring that it has the ability to defend itself; rename the Taiwan authorities' agency in the United States to the "Taiwan Representative Office", blatantly conducting official exchanges with Taiwan, and not prohibiting interactions between US and Taiwan officials; in addition, the United States must also help Taiwan join international organizations such as United Nations to obtain a higher international status; and the bill also mentions "Taiwan sovereignty", which is equivalent to hollowing out the "one-China principle", making the United States' strategy to Taiwan vaguely become a clear strategy, and publicly supporting "Taiwan independence".
Once the bill is passed, the consequences will be unimaginable, which means that the Taiwan Strait will face an unprecedented crisis, and cross-strait relations and Sino-US relations will be completely changed. Ambassador Qin Gang had warned that Sino-US relations would collapse due to the passage of the bill.
For the mainland, the United States' move is indeed more vicious. If decisive measures are taken, it may be the right thing to do. The United States clearly forces the mainland to use force against Taiwan. It is not difficult for the People's Liberation Army to defeat the Taiwan military, but if it is necessary to deal with military intervention from the United States, Japan and other countries at the same time, it will be more difficult. If there is no tough fight back against this, the United States will be fearless, continue to provoke, and continue to challenge the mainland's bottom line. The end of the " sausage-cutting tactic " is the implementation of the "Taiwan independence" plan of the DPP, which is something we don't want to see.
Although the current situation is not good for us and is a great test for us, I believe the relevant departments will handle it well. Here we would also like to advise the "Taiwan independence" that if you make mistakes to the end, what awaits you will definitely be the severe disposal of the People's Liberation Army.
