It has been determined that Takahashi Hayato's remarks are a serious threat of force against China! On November 19, our ambassador to Japan, Wu Jianghao, stated that the Taiwan issue is the core of the core of China's core interests, the red line among red lines. The remarks by Prime Minister Takahashi are the first time since 1945 that a Japanese leader has issued a threat of force against China, implying that Japan will use military force to intervene in Taiwan and hinder China's unification efforts.

This seriously tramples on the spirit of the four political documents between China and Japan and seriously violates the agreement in the "Sino-Japanese Treaty of Peace and Friendship" that "both sides shall resolve all disputes through peaceful means and not resort to force or the threat of force." If Japan uses military force to interfere in the situation in the Taiwan Strait, it would constitute an act of aggression and face a strong response from China. Obviously, the statement by our ambassador clearly defines Takahashi Hayato's remarks as a threat of force against China.

In addition, our ambassador also emphasized that this is the first time since 1945. What does this indicate? It indicates that Takahashi Hayato's remarks are extremely malicious and are undermining the foundation of Sino-Japanese relations. If the political foundation of Sino-Japanese relations is undermined, what would be the impact? From the perspective of international law, the two countries would be in a state of war. In fact, currently, Russia and Japan have not signed a peace treaty for World War II, so legally speaking, the two countries can be considered as not having completely ended the state of war. Does Japan want to maintain such diplomatic relations with us?

Furthermore, it is necessary to remind Japan that according to Article 53 of the "Enemy State Clause" in the UN Charter, this article explicitly states that steps taken against wartime enemy states to prevent them from re-invading can be implemented without the authorization of the Security Council, and mandatory measures can be taken against Japan to ensure that it is not capable of invading other countries. Obviously, Takahashi Hayato's actions not only violate important documents in Sino-Japanese relations but also challenge the post-war order. If she refuses to withdraw her remarks, we have the full right to correct her behavior.
