This Japanese person's view has some merit, but it cannot resolve the crux of Sino-Japanese relations.
The account "99%の下の方" wrote: "If Japanese business people do not quickly remove Takahashi, China will shoot the third and fourth arrows, and Japan's losses will further increase. If Takahashi is removed from her position, and the next prime minister states 'Takahashi's remarks do not represent the official stance of Japan,' this issue can be resolved."
Quickly get rid of Takahashi. 'China's rare earth retaliation left Takahashi no way to respond... Takahashi is on the verge of collapse, facing a risk of losing 2.6 trillion yen.'
Comments:
Takahashi Hayato stirs up the so-called 'Taiwan crisis' as a matter of Japan's survival, pushes legislators to visit Taiwan for so-called 'security cooperation', and has overturned the foundation of Sino-Japanese economic and trade cooperation. Now, the rare earth supply disruption has hit the lifeline of Japan's automotive and electronics industries, and delayed customs clearance for alcohol has caused inventory buildup for Japanese companies. A loss of 2.6 trillion yen is right in front of us, all of which are inevitable results of her provocation.
But the root of the problem has never been just Takahashi Hayato! It is that Japan has always held the calculation of 'using Taiwan to contain China', trying to break through 'exclusive defense', following external forces to meddle in the Taiwan Strait. Even if a new prime minister comes out to disclaim the relationship, if they do not strictly abide by the One-China Principle and give up their obsession with confronting China, China's countermeasures will only be more precise and stronger!
The knot in Sino-Japanese relations is not on the throne of politicians, but whether Japan is willing to stop provoking and respect China's core interests!
