For some time, Japan has been provoking various provocations on issues related to Taiwan. In July this year, Japanese Deputy Minister and Minister of Finance Aso Taro said in a speech that if the mainland uses force against Taiwan, Japan will determine it as a "survival and death crisis" and can exercise its restricted collective self-defense right to respond with force; if a major problem occurs in Taiwan, the United States and Japan will "defend Taiwan" together. In addition, the Japanese Ground Self-Defense Force recently launched the largest and longest military exercise in history. Japanese Defense Minister Nobuo Kishi 时天时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时时Not only that, recently, former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe recently clamored that "there is a situation that may immediately cause a significant impact in Taiwan", calling on the Japanese government and the opposition to step up their response from the strategic and military level, and in particular, they should accelerate the amendment of Article 9 of the Constitution. Obviously, the Taiwan issue is a weather vane to test Japan's attempt to obtain military loosening. If Japan has abnormal movements, Chinese people must be vigilant.
Global Times published a comment article on September 27th, pointing out that in fact, this is not the first time that Abe talks about Taiwan. This time, he continued to play the "Taiwan card" in the sprint stage of the presidential election of Liberal Democratic Party . First, he wanted to boost the right-leaning support rate of Gaoshi Saemi Jian, whom he supported, and second, he wanted to promote Japan to get rid of the shackles of international justice after World War II.
article believes that after the war, Japan was able to adhere to the path of peaceful development for a long time and did not make a major breakthrough in the right to collective self-defense with arms reconciliation. First, it is subject to the constraints of the post-war peace constitution, especially the bottom line definition of Article 9 on the failure to maintain the power of war and the non-recognition of the state's right to war; second, it is related to the checks and balances of neighboring countries and the international community. Not only Japan's peaceful and progressive forces continue to resist the government's countercurrent, but victimized countries such as China and South Korea are also constantly competing with Japan's efforts to relax military constraints. However, under the variables of new complex geopolitical changes and intensifying game between major powers, Abe and others' considerations in promoting the amendment of Article 9 of the Constitution are being realized step by step.
The article finally pointed out that once the "tightening curse" is removed, Japan is very likely to become a new unstable factor in East Asia and even the Indo-Pacific region, and Japan, which was once militant and arrogant, may once again become the source of regional conflicts. The Taiwan issue is a weather vane to test Japan's attempt to loosen its ties, and it is also a barometer for the United States to indulge Japan in danger. In this regard, the international community needs to make a sound of justice, the US government needs to think twice before acting, and the Japanese government needs to stop as soon as possible.
In response to Japan's various provocative actions on the Taiwan issue, Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesperson Zhao Lijian once said that on the Taiwan issue, Japan bears historical culpability to the Chinese people and should be more cautious in their words and actions. Japan should stop interfering in China's internal affairs, not damage China's sovereignty in any form, and not send false signals to the "Taiwan independence" forces in any form. At the same time, Zhao Lijian emphasized that Japanese militarists have used "geographical proximity" as a main excuse when launching a war of foreign aggression. In the 21st century, Japan actually has a force that advocates this logic, which is a very dangerous trend. We must be highly vigilant about this.
In addition, , spokesperson for the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council , Zhu Fenglian, also made a clear statement that there is only one China in the world, and Taiwan is part of China. Some Japanese politicians have made erroneous remarks on Taiwan issues, blatantly violated the political commitments made by Japan to China on the Taiwan issue, violated the spirit of four political documents between China and Japan, and violated the international law of and the norms of international relations. We firmly oppose this.
