China and US Presidents Mention Militarism for the First Time in a Decade
According to Yuyuan Tan Tian, in recent days, the leaders of China and the United States had a phone call. The Chinese side specifically mentioned that China and the United States once fought together against fascism and militarism, and now they should jointly safeguard the achievements of the victory in World War II. Tan Zhu noticed that this is the first time in the past decade that the leaders of China and the United States have directly mentioned "militarism" in their communication. The signal conveyed by this call is clear - there are signs of revival of Japanese militarism, which should be viewed as a common challenge facing the international community and requires joint efforts from all countries to address.
It should be noted that the UN Charter has a special "Enemy State Clause," stipulating that if countries that were fascist or militarist, including Japan, take any steps to implement an aggressive policy again, the original member states of the UN, including China and the United States, have the right to directly carry out military actions against them.
