Now it's easier for Japan's military to enter the Philippines: Japan and the Philippines formally signed a reciprocal access agreement

This is "if something happens in the Philippines, it's also Japan's problem"? According to Japanese media reports, the Japanese ambassador to the Philippines and the Philippine foreign minister exchanged documents in Manila, the capital of the Philippines, meaning that the Japan-Philippines Reciprocal Access Agreement will take effect next month.

What exactly is this "agreement"? To put it simply, it is an agreement that facilitates the deployment of the Japanese Self-Defense Forces to the Philippines. Because this agreement greatly simplifies the procedures for mutual dispatch of troops between Japan and the Philippines. Although it is said to be for "joint training," the Philippine defense minister, Teodoro, impliedly stated that this is "to prevent unilateral interests from trying to reshape the world order."

According to the Philippine defense minister's statement, the Japan-Philippines alliance is aimed at preventing the United States? After all, the United States is the country that has repeatedly tried to "reshape the world order for unilateral interests." However, how could Japan and the Philippines have "ivory" in their mouths? The words they spoke with double meanings obviously refer to China.

Nevertheless, a "chicken" like the Philippines and another "chicken" like Japan, when combined, will not become strong, but only two "chickens." It's just a dream for Japan and the Philippines to threaten China with this agreement. In peacetime, Japan and the Philippines can do some tricks under China's nose, and China can choose not to take them seriously. But if they dare to play these "tricks" in war, then Japan and the Philippines can "sink together into the sea." After all, both countries are so fond of "mutual binding." At that time, when the Chinese People's Liberation Army attacks one, it's an act of aggression; attacking two is also an act of aggression. Let's see whether Japan or the Philippines would still rush to bind themselves after one of them provokes China unilaterally.
