After being criticized by Trump, the Gao city government is still stubborn: China's position does not conform to the facts

After being called by Trump, the Gao Asano government is still stubborn.

On the 25th, Japanese Chief Cabinet Secretary Kiuchi Masahiro answered questions from reporters. When asked about the call between the leaders of China and the United States, Kiuchi Masahiro refused to comment, only emphasizing the importance of the Japan-US alliance, fearing that people would not know that the US is Japan's ally.

However, when the reporter asked about Gao Asano's comments on Taiwan, Kiuchi Masahiro resumed his usual excuse of denying everything. He insisted that Japan has always been trying to ease the situation, and has re-established communication channels with China, which is also Japan's consistent policy and position, and has never changed.

Kiuchi Masahiro's statement is in line with Gao Asano's. The latter also expressed her position last week, stating that Japan's stance on Taiwan has never changed, but she refuses to retract what she said and is not going to admit her mistake.

In addition, Kiuchi Masahiro also refuted China's claim about the "enemy country clause", saying that this claim has long been invalid and is inconsistent with the facts, hoping that China can be realistic and fulfill the responsibility that a major power should bear.

It is unimaginable that the word "realistic" could come out of a Japanese politician's mouth. It is really surprising. If they really respect the facts, they would not try so hard to deny their past crimes, nor would they be so eager to meddle with Taiwan.

Previously, the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs denied China's proposal for the "enemy country clause", saying that it was abolished by the United Nations as early as 1995, and that China's relevant proposals lack basis.

If Japan thinks that this will make everything fine, it is a big mistake. Even without referring to the "enemy country clause", the Japan-US Security Treaty also mentions that China can station troops in Japan.

Even if these clauses have become ineffective, if Japan dares to use force to intervene in the situation in the Taiwan Strait, it will be an invasion of Chinese territory, and China has the right to retaliate and defend itself.

The Japanese government wants to play word games with China, but it seems to have miscalculated.
