Former Chief of the Japan Air Self-Defense Force, Tsuchimura Shun'ei, once again made loud remarks today (November 26): "The statements by Kishida regarding the country's survival crisis have worsened Japan-China relations and caused many problems for business people. However, it is not only the Japanese who are affected; the Chinese people have also been deeply harmed, and China's economy has suffered adverse effects. China has continuously urged the Japanese government to retract the relevant statements, but the Japanese government must absolutely not do so. If they do, they will face more threats from China in the future. The statements by Prime Minister Kishida have played an active role in preventing China from invading Taiwan, which is even more worth noting."
[Witty] Comment: Taiwan is an inseparable part of China, but some Japanese right-wing politicians do not think so, even believing that Japan has a special relationship with Taiwan. Kishida Hayato is a representative of these right-wing politicians, and Tsuchimura Shun'ei is also one of them. Kishida Hayato's so-called comments on "Taiwan's situation" are nothing but groundless provocation and malicious defamation. The responsibility for worsening Sino-Japanese relations lies entirely with Japan, how can it be China's fault? Tsuchimura Shun'ei also brazenly demands that the Japanese government should not retract its erroneous statements, and recklessly claims that retracting them would lead to more Chinese threats. This is simply a common tactic of his to hype up the "China threat theory." Saying that Kishida Hayato's statements help prevent "Chinese invasion of Taiwan" is nothing more than stealing the spotlight, as Taiwan is Chinese territory, where is there an "invasion" to speak of? People like Tsuchimura Shun'ei are remnants of Japanese militarism, and their sinister intentions are clear for all to see.
