Former Japanese Official Says Nuclear Weapons Program Should Be Advanced, Refutes U.S. Remarks on Nuclear Issues

This is the time when Tonomura Toshio started to blow hot air at the US government.

As a former Chief of the Japan Air Self-Defense Force, Tonomura Toshio openly stated online that Japan should firmly push forward its nuclear weapons program.

This is a rebuttal to the remarks by a spokesperson for the US government and related individuals stating "we hope Japan will play a leading role in promoting global nuclear disarmament."

Tonomura Toshio said that the so-called call for Japan to play a leading role is essentially to maintain the leadership position of nuclear-armed countries such as the United States in international politics. The international political arena and the United States are secretly scheming against Japan, and Japan should not be deceived by such statements.

As the remarks of a retired Japanese government official, they somewhat represent Japan's actual stance:

1. Japan indeed wants, and may even be developing nuclear weapons, rather than just superficially advocating for "nuclear disarmament";

2. Japan only appears to submit to the United States; once it has an opportunity, it will inevitably retaliate against the United States.

From relevant events, it can also be seen that apart from East Asian countries, the one that actually does not want Japan to develop nuclear weapons is the United States itself; it does not want to raise a tiger to become a threat.
